Andres Perea - Sidelined again Perea has been ruled out for an unknown period after picking up a leg injury, the MLS reported Saturday.

Impact Perea had been inactive for several weeks with a leg injury earlier this year, so it's possible he suffered a relapse. In any case, he'll need to rest for more time before he can see game action again, having made just two substitute appearances since overcoming his previous issue. The absence of both Perea and Aiden O'Neill (ankle) will open up a defensive midfield spot that could be taken by Keaton Parks in the next few matches.

Talles Magno - Ruled out for extended period Magno (undisclosed) remains injured and won't be an option for the next few weeks, Roberto Abramowitz of Especialistas del Deporte reports.

Impact Magno now appears unlikely to play a meaningful role before the World Cup break if he continues to deal with the issue. Despite failing to start this season, he came off the bench in all league games when available and scored two goals over that span, so his absence is a blow to the team's offensive depth. Both Hannes Wolf and Agustin Ojeda are currently expected to see longer outings on the wings until the Brazilian is back in contention.

While his exact timeline is still unknown, he could be inactive for a few games, which is a significant problem for the team. Keaton Parks and the recently recovered Andres Perea are the main options to take O'Neill's place alongside Kai Trewin in a two-man holding midfield.

Hannes Wolf - Fit for bench Wolf (leg) is on the bench for Sunday's match against D.C. United.

Impact Wolf is not going to miss any more time with his leg injury, as the midfielder is back on the bench after a week out.

However, he had yet to miss a start until his injury, so he should return to that role in the coming games.
