SEATTLE — The results of Raúl Ruidíaz’s most recent MRI are in and they are “not good news.” Seattle Sounders head coach Brian Schmetzer said Ruidíaz would likely be out 4-5 weeks with right hamstring injury, this time suffered during Wednesday’s training session.

“We’re going to try to get him right, he’s still part of the team,” Schmetzer said following Friday’s training session at Lumen Field. “We’ll take a little extra time and make sure when he comes back he’s ready to go.”

This is the latest in an ongoing battle with muscle injuries that have plagued Ruidíaz since the latter part of the 2021 season and the second time he’s been shelved this season alone.
