Fit again Che (hamstring) is on the bench for Saturday's match against Chicago.

Impact Che is finally back in the team sheet after weeks of coming close following a hamstring injury, and has been given a spot on the bench. He was an option for the first three games of the season and started in all three, so he will be eying a return to the starting XI after a few minutes to test his fitness.

Hamstring injury remains Che is still out for the time being with a hamstring injury, per the MLS Player Status Report.

Impact Che has been sidelined for multiple matchdays with this hamstring issue, and there's still no sign of an imminent return. He's a dynamic fullback who can contribute when healthy, particularly in attacking formats, making his absence a genuine loss for those who have him rostered. Hamstrings need to be fully healed before being pushed, so expect continued caution from the club.

Forced off against Toronto Che left with a potential muscle issue in the final minutes of Saturday's 1-1 draw against Toronto.

Impact Che grabbed his left hamstring after a non-contact play and was unable to continue in the weekend game. The defender has made a consistent impact over four straight starts, so his loss would be tough news for the team if an injury is confirmed. With Dylan Nealis (ankle) also struggling with fitness issues, Tim Parker should be a viable option to take Che's place if required in the future.
