On bench against Kansas City Julio (quadriceps) is in Salt Lake's match day squad for Sunday's clash against Sporting KC.

Questionable against SKC Julio (quadriceps) is listed as questionable for Sunday's match against Sporting KC, according to Lucas Mueller of RSL Soapbox.

Impact Julio missed the midweek loss to Atlanta after picking up the injury July 10 against Colorado and he could be back Sunday. With a bad injury history in the present campaign, it's worth waiting a little longer to see if Julio will be ready. In his absence, Justin Meram should continue to rack up minutes.

Out against Atlanta Julio (quadriceps) has been ruled out for Wednesday's clash against Atlanta United, according to RSL's injury report.

Justin Meram, who scored Saturday, replaced Julio during this contest and could remain in the lineup for Wednesday's trip to Atlanta. Depending on the nature of the injury, Julio could be out for at least a week or two, though there isn't much known yet.

Gets eight minutes in return Julio (hamstring) played eight minutes off the bench in Saturday's 2-1 loss against Vancouver.

Transfers to RSL permanently Julio has signed a three-year contract with Real Salt Lake after transferring on a permanent basis from Atletico San Luis, the club announced Thursday.

Impact Julio scored nine goals in 33 MLS appearances (11 starts) last season while on-loan with Salt Lake, and the 25-year-old now returns on a permanent deal from the Liga MX side. RSL have endured an injury-riddled 2022 so far, so Julio's return could give them momentum until the squad gets closer to fitness.

Returning from loan Julio's loan to Real Salt Lake has ended, and he will return to Atletico San Luis at the turn of the year if no new deal is agreed upon.

Impact Julio tallied nine goals and an assist in 33 MLS appearances (11 starts) while on-loan in Salt Lake. He is in talks with the club about a potential new contract, but if nothing materializes then the 25-year-old will return to Liga MX at the end of the year.

Scores goal against Kansas City Julio subbed into Sunday's Western Conference semifinal against Sporting KC in the 57th minute, and he made a clearance, an interception and scored a goal in the 2-1 victory.

Impact Julio scored the equalizer on Sunday that paved the way for Bobby Wood's dramatic game winner in the 91st minute, and Salt Lake is moving on to the Western Conference Final against Portland next weekend. Julio has started 10 games this season and he is unlikely to break into the XI at such a critical moment, but he should still have a part to play off the bench once again.

Shines off the bench in big win Julio scored once, took three shots (two on target), made one tackle (one won) and intercepted once in the 3-1 win over Colorado on Saturday.

Impact Julio was brought on as fresh legs in the final minutes of the match and he did that and more. The forward ended up taking over a third of the shots for Real Salt Lake and he also secured the win with his eighth goal of the year. Julio's blazing speed was too much to handle for Colorado's backline and as long as he starts, he is a great option at the position.

Impact Julio scored his third goal in his last five appearances -- with just two starts in that span -- on Sunday, but it wasn't enough to earn a result against a team gaining ground in the race for playoff spots. He might have earned a start for Wednesday's clash against the Earthquakes, which have conceded 31 goals in 23 matches this season.
