Pedro De la Vega - Soccer News, Rumors, & Updates

Won't feature before June De la Vega (knee) will not be an option until right before the World Cup at the earliest, coach Brian Schmetzer told the media, according to Jackson Felts from the Hollywood Weekly...

Impact De la Vega is still facing a lengthy road back from a fractured patella, with his return projected, in the best-case scenario, just before the 2026 World Cup in June. It is a tough break for the Sounders, as the forward has been a locked-in starter up top and a consistent presence in the front line when healthy. His extended absence should create real opportunity for Paul Rothrock and for Paul Arriola, who is also working his way back after a long-term knee injury.

Impact De la Vega was stretchered off after suffering an apparently serious injury in the weekend's match. The attacker's absence would be a major blow to the squad given that he's one of their most talented options and has scored one goal and one assist over his last two starts. Paul Rothrock will likely regain a significant role in the knockout rounds to fill in for the Argentinian.
