Morales Injury Update & Trialist News
Midfielders Kyle Beckerman, Will Johnson and Javier Morales all were given the day off from practice today, after their participation in the MLS All-Star Game last night, but still they provided some hopeful news.
Team officials said that the injury that Morales suffered near the end of the game was just a badly bruised calf, and nothing serious. He's expected back in training tomorrow, along with his teammates.
Meanwhile, general manager Garth Lagerwey said that Argentine winger Nelson Gonzalez has accepted the team's invitation to trial with them, and should arrive next week. Lagerwey doesn't expect the trial to last long before a contract is presumably offered, however, since he and coach Jason Kreis already have watched him play, and they just want to see how the 20-year-old Gonzalez get along in the RSL system.
"It's not like somebody's flying in who we're unfamiliar with," Lagerwey said. "What we want to see is how he does with us."
