Injury Ankle
Est. Return 10/10/2026
Progressing in recovery
Che (ankle) is progressing well in his recovery, according to manager Michael Bradley. "[Justin is] moving along in a good way," Bradley said in a recent press conference Sep. 24. "He's doing everything that he can. We're pushing him along in a good way and, like I said, we'll take advantage of every minute, every hour between now and the time the game kicks off."
ANALYSIS
Che was expected to be a game-time call for the Sept. 26 match against St. Louis City SC, but the game was postponed due to weather-related issues. With the match now scheduled for Wednesday, Che will once again be a game-time call, though the coaching staff could also give him more time to recover and wait until the Oct. 10 match against San Diego FC to be fully fit. Che has missed the Red Bulls' last two games due to the injury. He has started in all but two of his 17 league appearances this season.
