Questionable with adductor issue
Alzate's availability is in doubt for the upcoming clash against Columbus Crew as he deals with an adductor injury, per the MLS player status report.
Analysis: Alzate could be sidelined again after playing no minutes since April 12, having yet to reach a full recovery from a groin problem. The midfielder had previously been in and out of the starting lineup, and his absence hurts the squad in terms of possession and defensive strength. Tristan Muyumba, Cooper Sanchez and Ajani Fortune should continue to get increased opportunities until the injured player is available again.
Available again
Alzate (groin) has been removed from the injury report as he's ready to see action going forward, Atlanta United's managing editor Adam Jasper reports.
Analysis: Alzate could be initially included as a substitute before contending for a starting role following a one-month absence. The midfielder has been involved mostly in defensive duties this season, tallying 11 tackles, four clearances and three interceptions over seven MLS appearances. His presence may eventually take playing time away from Tristan Muyumba, Cooper Sanchez and Matias Galarza.
