Ryan Sailor - Soccer News, Rumors, & Updates

Set to miss another 3-4 weeks Sailor (knee) "is still three or four weeks away" from returning to action, coach Brian Schmetzer told reporters Thursday, per Jackson Felts of KJR radio.

Impact Sailor will likely have to sit out at least the next three MLS matchups before making his Sounders debut following a winter move from Inter Miami. The defender has recorded just 10 minutes of play over the last seven months, so his return to action might be a gradual one. Both Jackson Ragen and Antino Lopez are now expected to see increased action in Sailor's absence.

Remains without timetable Sailer (knee) remains without a timetable of return, per head coach Brian Schmetzer via Niko Moreno of Sounder at Heart.

Impact Sailor will remain on the shelf for the time being as there is no clear answer to his recover from his knee injury. He had minimal playing time last season with Inter Miami as well due to injury, appearing just five times in 2025, clocking in just 94 minutes of play.
