Ruled out due to concussion Vargas didn't clear the concussion protocol and won't play Saturday against the Galaxy, manager Brian Schmetzer told media, including Jeremiah Oshan of Sounder At Heart, on Friday.
Impact Vargas seemed to be trending in the right direction and had managed to return to training, but he wasn't cleared by the medical staff, so he'll miss the matchup against the Galaxy. His next chance to return will come against Montreal on April 6, and in the meantime, Danny Leyva should remain as his replacement in central midfield.
MARCH 29, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Back in full training Vargas was spotted in full training Thursday, Jeremiah Oshan of Sounder At Heart reports.
Impact Vargas was spotted training on the side earlier this week, so this is clearly a step in the right direction for the young midfielder. If he ends up being cleared to play, it wouldn't be surprising if he starts against the Galaxy, as he's started and played the full 90 in the three matches he's been available for.

DECEMBER 28, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Impact Vargas has one assist in six MLS appearances (three starts) this season for the Sounders, but he's now set to miss at least the next five games while he's with the Youth National Team.

MAY 10, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Impact Vargas recorded his first career assist in the MLS after getting his first start this season. He only featured in the lineup because Joshua Atencio (groin) sat out with injury. The 17-year-old should continue his bench role for the club, but will be one of the first options to start if needed.
APRIL 16, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Features off bench in win Vargas played the final 20 minutes or so of Saturday's 2-1 victory against the Galaxy.

APRIL 4, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Active in training Vargas trained with Seattle on Thursday, Jeremiah Oshan reports.
Impact Vargas made a return from international duty, training Thursday back with his domestic club. The midfielder has made just a single appearance off the bench so far due to a back injury, but is now fully fit and could see more consistent playing time after making 13 appearances in 2022.

Impact Vargas is only just returning from a back injury he's been dealing with since last June, but he'll be linking up with the U.S. u-20 side during this March international window, which rules him out of Saturday's MLS clash against Sporting KC and also possibly for the Galaxy match on April 1.
MARCH 22, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Active off bench Vargas (back) played 27 minutes off the bench during Saturday's scoreless draw with LAFC.
Impact Vargas made his season debut, coming off the bench for the final half hour of Saturday's draw. The midfielder was shut down due to injury early in the summer of 2022, but when fully fit could play a major role in Seattle's midfield.
MARCH 20, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Out against RSL Vargas (back) was not involved in Saturday's victory against Real Salt Lake.
Impact Vargas is still working his way back from a back injury that he's been dealing with for roughly nine months now. He is almost fit enough to return to the squad but there's no reason for the Sounders to rush the 17-year-old's recovery.
MARCH 6, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Trending towards return Vargas (back) is available for Saturday's clash with Salt Lake, manager Brian Schmetzer told reporters.
Impact Vargas is expected to return for Saturday's match against Salt Lake. The midfielder missed the opener due to a back injury but is now nearing a return to the first team. Vargas made 13 appearances (10 starts) for Seattle in 2022, though the return of Joao Paulo from a torn ACL means Vargas will likely remain a backup in the Sounders' midfield for now.
MARCH 1, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Ruled out for season opener Vargas (back) will not be available for Sunday's clash against the Rapids, according to Seattle's injury report.
Impact Vargas has been out since last June with a back injury that still hasn't fully healed, and he will miss the first game of the new campaign against Colorado this weekend.
FEBRUARY 24, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Training with team Vargas (back) is in full training with Seattle to begin preseason, according to MLS reporter Niko Moreno on Tuesday.
Impact Vargas was very impressive during his brief stint as a starter last season before a season-ending back injury ruled him out from June onwards. Assuming Joao Paulo makes a full recovery from his own ACL tear, the 17-year-old Vargas will not have as big of a role in the XI in 2023, meaning there will be less pressure on the youngster and he can focus more on maintaining his fitness.
JANUARY 11, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Ends season injured Vargas (back) was not involved in the Decision Day draw against San Jose.
Impact Vargas made 13 appearances (10 starts) in his breakout campaign in MLS, taking over an injured Joao Paulo's place in the XI in early May and impressing in defensive midfield. But Vargas started dealing with back issues in late June and he has not featured at all since. The 17-year-old will just hope to be fit and available for the start of 2023, even if he would likely be the first-choice backup to Albert Rusnak and Paulo when everyone is healthy.
