Injury Update: Hagglund Has Appendix Removed

Hagglund vs. Oduro

A number of familiar faces were back training on Thursday as the Reds prepare for Saturday’s match against the Philadelphia Union.


Jozy Altidore, Jonathan Osorio and Ashtone Morgan were full participants in training and are expected to feature in Saturday’s match.


Altidore declared himself 80 percent fit after being removed from the United States' Gold Cup roster.


"I’m happy to be back in Toronto,” he said. “Absolutely I'll be ready for Saturday.”


On the injury front, Nick Hagglund had emergency surgery to remove his appendix on Wednesday night. His status for Saturday’s match is unclear.

Damien Perquis has responded well to treatment after picking up a knee injury in New York and Clement Simonin will also be available after putting in time with Toronto FC II last Saturday.
