Contract negotiations ongoing Montero's contract with the Sounders has run out but the club is still in active talks with the player about a potential new deal.

Equalizes in home draw Montero scored one goal to go with four shots (two on target), two crosses (one accurate) and one corner in Tuesday's 1-1 draw against FC Cincinnati.

Impact Montero found himself in the starting XI after appearing as a substitute in his squad's last match. Sounders were a more aggressive team in the second half of this clash, and Montero was a big reason why. His goal was a lone bit of brilliance for a Seattle side that otherwise played rather uninspired football. On the league season, the veteran attacker now has four goals across 24 appearances (11 starts).

Assists Saturday Montero assisted once to go with one shot (one on goal), two crosses (two accurate), and two chances created in Sunday's 2-1 defeat against Vancouver Whitecaps FC.

Impact Montero provided his first primary assist of the campaign in his 23rd appearance during Saturday's loss. The midfielder has been totally removed from the starting XI in his second season with Seattle, and despite some strong showings off the bench can't seem to make his way back into the first team. Montero has five total goal contributions through 23 appearances (10 starts.)

Impact Montero scored his second goal of the season during Saturday's win. The striker hasn't hit the ground running with in 2022 with only two goals through 13 appearances. Montero has shown the potential to be a major goal-scoring threat in his career and if he gets hot the sky is the limit. He will hope to build off this tally as Seattle head into a Saturday clash with Portland.

Secondary helper off bench Montero came off the bench and provided one assist during Sunday's 2-1 win over Charlotte.

Impact Montero came off the bench for the final 30 minutes of Sunday's win and provided a secondary assist. The forward isn't getting the playing time he had previously, and may find it tough to reach double-digit goals as he did in 2017. That said Montero is still a worthwhile asset for Seattle, just not a major fantasy one. Montero will likely be on the bench against his former club Vancouver next time out.

Impact Montero scored from the penalty spot in the 47th minute to give Seattle their first lead of the day. This was his first goal of the season and an interesting sign that Montero is on penalty duty with Raul Ruidiaz (hamstring) sidelined for the time being. This may give Montero a slight boost when the Peruvian is out, which could continue in Sunday's trip to Austin FC.

Re-signs with Seattle Montero has signed a one-year contract with the Sounders with the option to extend for an additional year, the club announced Friday.

Impact Montero's previous contract option had been declined when Seattle's roster decisions were released a few weeks ago, but the 34-year-old has re-signed a new deal with the club through 2022 at least. He tallied seven goals and three assists in 30 MLS appearances (16 starts) last season, but the returns of Nicolas Lodeiro and Jordan Morris from long-term injuries means Montero will likely be utilized less frequently in attack this year.
