(Photo by Lev Radin/Pacific Press/LightRocket via Getty Images) New York Red Bulls star Lewis Morgan's injury-riddled 2025 season took another wrong turn this week, as head coach Sandro Schwarz confirmed on Thursday that he will miss Saturday's match at Montreal after reaggravating the quad injury that has kept him sidelined since June."
"Time is running out for Morgan and the Red Bulls, who could use the star winger's skill set. With four games left in the regular season, they are two points out of a playoff spot, with ninth-place Chicago holding a game in hand. The franchise's current North American record of 15-straight playoff appearances is in serious jeopardy, as they have won just three of their last 13 league games."
"Morgan has appeared in just three matches this season, halting any momentum that came after winning Major League Soccers Comeback Player of the Year last season. He scored 13 goals with seven assists in league play after a 2023 season was derailed by a hip injury that ultimately needed surgery and limited him to just five matches. He injured his knee following the first match of the year, which ultimately required surgery. After just two games back, he injured his quad in late June."
Lewis Morgan reaggravated a quad injury during individual work this week and will miss the upcoming match at Montreal, with an MRI scheduled. Head coach Sandro Schwarz confirmed the setback after earlier targeting the other side of the international break for Morgan's return. Morgan has appeared in only three matches this season following knee surgery and a prior 2023 hip injury that required surgery. He earned MLS Comeback Player of the Year after scoring 13 goals and seven assists last season. New York sits two points outside a playoff spot with four games remaining and has won just three of its last 13 league games, putting its 15-straight playoff appearance record at risk.
