Out with hamstring injury Doumbia (hamstring) is out for Saturday's match against Toronto, according to the MLS injury report.

Impact Doumbia is heading to the sidelines for the weekend after not practicing earlier in the week, with the defender suffering from a hamstring injury. He will now have two weeks to recover as the club heads into the break. He had just returned from an injury, so he will hope he can do the same after the break.

Absent from training Doumbia was not involved in training Wednesday ahead of Saturday's match against Toronto, according to Will Palaszczuk of WFNZ.

Impact Doumbia returned to play last week after coming off the bench for 17 minutes, but appears to be dealing with some drawbacks now, as the defender was unable to train Wednesday. This is something to monitor heading into the weekend, as he is a starter when fit but hasn't been able to shake off the injury bug this campaign. That said, he will likely be a game-time decision unless he trains with the group Thursday or Friday.

Eyeing return Saturday Doumbia (hamstring) is eyeing a return when facing Atlanta on Saturday, according to Will Palaszczuk of WFNZ.

Impact Doumbia could be in for a return this week, as the defender is now looking to play Saturday. That said, he will likely still need to train this week and pass some testing to be an option. He started in eight of his 10 appearances before the injury and could eye a starting spot when he returns.

Suffers hamstring injury Doumbia has been diagnosed with a "significant" hamstring injury and will be out for several weeks, manager Dean Smith told media Thursday.

Impact Doumbia exited the 3-0 win over San Diego in the latter stages of the first half with an injury, and further tests revealed he's dealing with a hamstring problem. Tim Ream took his place in the defense in that match and could see an uptick in playing time going forward.

Off during first half Doumbia was forced off in the 38th minute of Saturday's 3-0 win over San Diego due to an apparent injury.

Impact Doumbia had to retreat to the sidelines early Saturday, not making it through the first half due to what looked to be an injury. This is tough for the defender, as he just returned to the starting XI after missing out last match. He was replaced by Tim Rea, who would likely be his replacement if he misses more time.

Makes MLS appearances Doumbia recorded two crosses (zero accurate) and one interception in Saturday's 4-1 win versus San Jose Earthquakes.

Status uncertain for Saturday Doumbia is still in the process of getting a visa, so his status for Saturday's game against the Earthquakes is uncertain, manager Dean Smith told media Thursday.

Impact Doumbia is on loan at Charlotte from Standard Liege, but he's yet to make an appearance for the MLS club. It's unclear when he'll be able to debut, but even when his paperwork is completed, he might be nothing more than a depth option on the defensive line.
