Diego Rubio - Facing fitness test for Saturday Rubio is dealing with an ankle issue and is listed as questionable in Colorado's injury report for the Whitecaps match this weekend.

Impact Rubio has started four consecutive MLS games in attacking midfield for the Rapids, tallying a goal and an assist from 11 shots (seven on target) and eight chances created in that span. It would be a huge loss for the team if Rubio wasn't fit enough to play against Vancouver, as the attacking lineup beyond him is already in a bit of flux at the moment.

Danny Leyva - Loaned to Colorado Leyva has joined the Rapids on a season-long loan from Seattle, the club announced Tuesday.

Impact Leyva started 12 MLS matches in midfield last season for the Sounders, but the returns of Joao Paulo and Obed Vargas from injury have limited him to just three appearances off the bench in 2023. The 19-year-old is now moving on-loan to Colorado for the rest of the campaign, where he will likely compete with Ralph Priso to be Connor Ronan and Bryan Acosta's backup in the center of the park.
