Impact Mosquera's inclusion in the squad is a clean bill of health heading into upcoming fixtures, with his return giving coach Phil Neville more defensive options to call upon. The defender made his lone appearance at right-back earlier in the season and could push to challenge Brandon Bye for that role once he gets back up to full match sharpness through further appearances off the bench.

Expected back for SKC match Mosquera (knee) is likely to miss one more week before returning for the May 9 clash against Sporting Kansas City, according to coach Phil Neville, Jeremy Peterman of Cascadia FC r...

Impact Mosquera has missed nine of 10 MLS games this season due to different injuries, but he's getting closer to a full return. The defender made his lone appearance as a right-back, so he could be used in Brandon Bye's place once he's ready to start. In that case, Mosquera will be reliable for crosses and a few defensive stats.

Still 1-2 weeks away Mosquera (knee) remains sidelined with no involvement in training sessions as he's expected to miss a couple more weeks of action, Adam Susman of The Timber Review reports.

Impact Mosquera looks set to remain inactive for a few more games, having already missed seven of the first eight MLS games in the 2026 season. This issue limits the squad's right-back options, with Brandon Bye likely to get more starts in the short term.

Out against LAFC Mosquera is not available for the next MLS contest versus Los Angeles FC, as coach Phil Neville said "Juan Mosquera is the only player out on Saturday.", Adam Susman of the Timber...

Impact Mosquera impressed with a goal and an assist during his season debut last weekend against Vancouver, where he played 45 minutes. However, he'll be forced to sit out the upcoming meeting with LAFC, and it remains to be seen when he'll rejoin the squad. His place in the starting lineup could be taken by Brandon Bye in the next game.

Impressive debut at Vancouver Mosquera scored one goal and assisted once from one shot and one chance created in Saturday's 3-2 defeat to Vancouver Whitecaps FC.

Impact Despite being part of a defensive line that conceded three goals, Mosquera can perhaps be forgiven, considering he was pretty much all of Portland's offense at Vancouver. He not only scored the Timbers' first goal but also assisted their second, logged by David Da Costa. Mosquera's season debut is far too impressive for a right-back to regularly maintain, but his campaign being off to an excellent start is promising news after he was out for several weeks.

Starts versus Whitecaps Mosquera (ankle) has been included in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against Vancouver Whitecaps.

Impact Mosquera is an option for the first time this year after sitting out the first five league matchups, and he's likely to see meaningful action as a right-back. Last season, he was very active on the flank, averaging 3.1 crosses (0.7 accurate) and 0.9 chances created per game, and tallying one goal plus two assists over 32 appearances. His return to the main lineup will push Brandon Bye to a bench spot.

APRIL 4 • ROTOWIRE

Expected to be available Mosquera (ankle) was training in the gym but is expected to be available for selection against Vancouver on Saturday, according to Adam Susman of The Timber Review.

Impact Mosquera wasn't training with the rest of the team to begin Thursday's session, but all signs point to the full-back being ready to play this weekend. Mosquera has yet to make his 2026 season debut, but he should be a regular starter once he's officially cleared to play.

Working with team Mosquera (ankle) was involved in Friday's practice as he continued to make progress on his recovery from injury, Adam Susman of The timber Review reports.

Impact Mosquera is getting close to a full recovery, although the week five match against Los Angeles Galaxy might come too soon for him to see major action. The defender was a regular option at right-back last season, and he could be a solid alternative to Brandon Bye whenever he's ready to play.

MARCH 20 • ROTOWIRE

Out 4-5 weeks Mosquera is expected to miss 4-5 weeks of action due to an ankle injury that was confirmed by coach Phil Neville, Adam Susman of The Timber Review reports.

Impact Mosquera served a one-match ban during the 2026 season opener but was apparently dealing with discomfort from the preseason. His absence leaves the squad without their primary right-back option, but his place is likely to be taken by offseason signing Brandon Bye for the next few games.

FEBRUARY 24 • ROTOWIRE

Available to make season debut Mosquera has served his one match suspension dating back from 2025 and will be an option for the trip to Colorado on Saturday.

Impact Mosquera was sent off in the final match played in 2025, therefore was forced to miss the San Diego clash on Saturday. He is expected to remain a starter in the back line for Portland as he enters his fifth campaign playing for the team, recording 54 clearances with 98 crosses and 29 chances created in 32 appearances in 2025.

Sent off Sunday Mosquera was shown a red card as a substitute during Sunday's 4-0 loss to San Diego.

Impact Mosquera came off the bench for the second half and received a straight red card for violent conduct in the 80th minute of the match. He's now suspended for the next league game but must serve that ban in the 2026 campaign. Despite being a consistent starter at right-back, he had a lackluster season as his side struggled defensively. Current options to play in his place are Jimer Fory and Eric Miller.

In starting XI versus Dallas Mosquera (lower body) is in the initial lineup for Saturday's clash against FC Dallas.

Impact Mosquera is fit enough to feature again after being excluded from the previous two MLS matchups due to the injury. The defender may produce crosses and tackles on the right flank if he avoids being replaced by Ian Smith or Eric Miller.

Doubtful Wednesday Mosquera is a doubt for Wednesday's clash against Vancouver due to a lower body injury, according to the MLS injury report.

Impact Mosquera is currently dealing with a lower body injury that likely sidelined him in Sunday's 1-0 defeat against Houston and makes him a doubt for Wednesday's clash against the Whitecaps. The right-back has been an undisputed starter in the backline for the Timbers this season, and if he has to miss a second game in a row, Eric Miller will likely replace him again on the right flank.

Records assist Mosquera assisted once to go with one shot (zero on goal), seven crosses (three accurate) and two chances created in Saturday's 1-1 draw against Minnesota United.

Impact For the first time since June 13, Mosquera has directly contributed to a goal. In terms of assists, his drought goes further, having last achieved an assist against the Rapids on May 29. Still, Mosquera's 2025 will include multiple assists, meaning he has successfully achieved the feat for three seasons running. But in 2023 and 2024, the full-back logged four assists, meaning his 2025 season is only halfway there.

Scores goal Mosquera scored one goal to go with two shots (one on goal), seven crosses (one accurate) and two chances created in Friday's 1-1 draw versus San Jose Earthquakes.

Impact For a third consecutive MLS season, Mosquera has logged at least one goal. Across the Portland team's last three games, it recorded seven points, and three of them are thanks to his direct contributions. Against the Rapids, Mosquera assisted the Timbers' game-winning goal, and him recently scoring one assured they would not go empty-handed Friday.

Sets up winning goal Mosquera assisted once to go with two shots (zero on goal), six crosses (two accurate) and one corner in Wednesday's 2-1 victory over Colorado Rapids.

Impact Mosquera recorded his first assist of the season, and the set-up couldn't have come at a better time for Portland since it was the game-winning goal, scored by Kevin Kelsy, in the 76th minute. Mosquera is known for his attacking runs but also provides defensive value, and his two-way play makes him a solid defensive target for most fantasy formats.

Two shots and five crosses in draw Mosquera generated two shots (two on goal) and five crosses (zero accurate) in Saturday's 0-0 draw versus Austin FC. He also added three clearances.

Impact Mosquera was one of the most active players for the Timbers, and even though he didn't do much in the defensive phase, his constant attacking runs generated danger on the opposing defense. Mosquera was injured in the early weeks of the season but has started Portland's last two matches, tallying four shots, seven crosses and eight clearances in that span as a two-way right-back.
