Remains out
Adekugbe (hamstring) is out for the next two matches, per Har Journalist.
Analysis: Adekugbe is among those that are injured and aren't traveling for the next two matches. That means he will miss the start of this road trip at the very least. Tate Johnson remains the unquestioned top choice at left-back while Adekugbe is left on the sideline.
Set for absence
Adekugbe is ruled out for Saturday's match against Los Angeles FC due to a hamstring issue, Har Journalist of Canadian Soccer Daily reports.
Analysis: Adekugbe has been limited to gym work lately, so it might take some time for him to play again, especially considering has yet to make a start this year after he faced several weeks on the sidelines through a prior quad problem. The wide player will continue to work on his rehabilitation over the next few weeks heading into the final stages of the campaign. His exclusion from upcoming matches strengthens Tate Johnson's place at left-back.
