Felix Chenkam undergoes surgery for herniated disc

If you’ve been wondering where Felix Chenkam has been for the Seattle Sounders or S2, the club provided an answer Friday. The Cameroonian striker successfully underwent surgery for a herniated disc early today.

Chenkam, 19, was signed by the first team May 25 after a slew of injuries left the Sounders out of options up top. The teenager never managed to make his debut for the first team, entering a standing loan agreement to return to S2 July 8.

It is not precisely clear when Chenkam sustained the injury, but the striker has not appeared in a match for S2 since appearing as a substitute against Real Monarchs SLC on July 15.
