LA GalaxyOn bench versus Houston
Aude (ankle) is on the bench for Saturday's matchup against Houston Dynamo.
Analysis: Aude made the match squad as expected after being able to train fully throughout the week. He'll offer a solid left-back option for the remainder of the season, potentially contributing creative and defensive numbers while he looks to raise his averages of 1.0 crosses, 3.8 balls recovered and 1.9 tackles per contest. John Nelson will see less playing time if Aude returns to the main lineup at some point.
Should be available Saturday
Aude (ankle) has completed a full week of training and will be fit for Saturday's matchup versus Houston Dynamo, according to coach Greg Vanney, Alex Ruiz of The Galactic Tribune reports.
Analysis: Aude was sidelined in the last five MLS games, missing almost a month of action, and it remains to be seen how quickly he'll regain a starting role. Once he's ready for a full workload, he'll likely be included in John Nelson's place at left-back, looking to improve on his season averages of 1.0 crosses, 3.8 balls recovered and 1.9 tackles per contest.
Out few weeks with ankle sprain
Aude (ankle) remains out for upcoming games after suffering a high-ankle sprain according to manager Greg Vanney, Alex Ruiz of The Galactic Tribune reported Sunday.
Analysis: Aude is expected to be sidelined for some more weeks after picking up the issue during the April 22 clash with Columbus Crew. Consequently, John Nelson may continue to feature at left-back in the short term. Aude's exact timeline is unclear as he works on his recovery from the injury. He previously made eight starts during the first couple of months of the 2026 MLS campaign.
Suffers injury in defeat
Aude was forced off due to a physical pain during Wednesday's 2-1 loss to Columbus Crew.
Analysis: Aude went down with the injury after only 22 minutes on the field, with John Nelson replacing him for the remainder of the match. The young defender is now a serious doubt for his team's upcoming contests as he'll likely face a fitness test to determine his availability. He has been a consistent participant at left-back, and his absence would leave the squad without its second-best tackling producer.
