Gonzalo Lujan - Soccer News, Rumors, & Updates

On bench for Nashville match Lujan (lower leg) is back on the bench for the weekend's duel versus Nashville.

Impact Lujan will look to play a role in upcoming weeks, although his involvement now depends on how quickly he builds match fitness and momentum after missing three league matches. In addition to Lujan, Micael has rejoined the team as well after an injury absence, so both of them could contend with Maximiliano Falcon for central spots, allowing Casemiro to stop covering in that zone and move back to midfield.

Forced off Saturday Lujan left Saturday's matchup versus Toronto with discomfort in his right leg.

Impact Lujan made his third straight start since returning from a prior issue, but he felt a new muscular pain that prevented him from staying on the field after 26 minutes of action. Losing the defender again would be a significant blow to the team given his defensive consistency, and it affects the depth of a back line that is already without Micael (strain). After the incident in the game versus Toronto, right-back Facundo Mura came on, and the versatile Ian Fray moved to the center.

Ruled out vs. Chicago Lujan (calf) has been downgraded to out for Wednesday's game against the Fire.

Impact Lujan was spotted training away from the group Tuesday, so it's not surprising to see him out for this midweek clash. Lujan's next chance to play will come against Montreal on Saturday, but it wouldn't be surprising if he misses that match as well due to a lack of match fitness based on the fact that he's yet to resume group training.

Uncertain for Chicago clash Lujan did individual work off to the side at the start of Tuesday's Inter Miami training session, putting his availability for the match against Chicago in doubt, Franco Panizo rep...

Impact Lujan, who had been pegged as the expected starter at centerback for this match, was pulled aside to do individual work rather than take part in the full group session at the start of Tuesday's training, an unmistakable signal that something is being managed with him physically. That alone puts his availability for the Chicago match squarely in doubt, and the situation is compounded by the fact that Maximiliano Falcon, who would ordinarily be first in line to deputize for him, was doing the exact same individual work at the same time. With both centerbacks now carrying uncertainty into the build-up, Noah Allen emerges as the most logical candidate to step into the starting lineup if neither Lujan nor Falcon is cleared in time, though nothing has been confirmed by the club as of now.
