Impact Amaya has been sidelined with a lower body issue since the end of July, and he has now progressed to running by himself on the field, an early but positive step in his recovery. His absence is unlikely to significantly affect CF Montreal given his limited role this season, having featured for only two minutes in league play and mostly remaining an unused substitute, with his more regular minutes confined to three Canadian Championship outings. Solo running suggests his recovery is underway, though it is still early enough in the process that no real timeline can be drawn from it, and his situation is best framed as a squad depth matter rather than a loss that affects the first team.
