Mikkel Desler News: Returns in US Open Cup

Desler (lower body) featured 64 minutes in Wednesday's 2-1 win against Minnesota in the US Open Cup, confirming he is back fit for Austin.

Desler missed the last game against Dallas due to a lower body injury, but the issue proved to be minor as he played 64 minutes in Wednesday's clash against Minnesota, confirming he is back fit and available for the Verdes. This is good news for Austin since the former Toulouse player has been an undisputed starter on the right flank this season, and they will need him fit for the final stretch of the campaign.
