Julián Aude

Aude (ankle) has completed a full week of training and will be fit for Saturday's matchup versus Houston Dynamo, according to coach Greg Vanney, Alex Ruiz of The Galactic Tribune reports.

Analysis: Aude was sidelined in the last five MLS games, missing almost a month of action, and it remains to be seen how quickly he'll regain a starting role. Once he's ready for a full workload, he'll likely be included in John Nelson's place at left-back, looking to improve on his season averages of 1.0 crosses, 3.8 balls recovered and 1.9 tackles per contest.

Out few weeks with ankle sprain

Aude (ankle) remains out for upcoming games after suffering a high-ankle sprain according to manager Greg Vanney, Alex Ruiz of The Galactic Tribune reported Sunday.

Analysis: Aude is expected to be sidelined for some more weeks after picking up the issue during the April 22 clash with Columbus Crew. Consequently, John Nelson may continue to feature at left-back in the short term. Aude's exact timeline is unclear as he works on his recovery from the injury. He previously made eight starts during the first couple of months of the 2026 MLS campaign.
