Philadelphia Union striker Mikael Uhre will not be traveling to Portland for Sunday’s game against the Timbers, head coach Jim Curtin confirmed Friday.

Uhre hasn’t played since he scored his first goal in a Union uniform on May 1 in Nashville. The Union has scored four goals in their past four games in all competitions in his absence.

Curtin said Uhre trained to the side with the team on Friday but isn’t quite ready for his return. The injury has been described as soreness in his quad.

“The MRI comes back clean so there’s no real drastic injury or an obvious injury that will show up on the MRI,” Curtin said.
