HANY MUKHTAR NEWS

Good to go for opener Saturday Mukhtar (hip) will be available for Saturday's clash against NYCFC, Nashville manager Gary Smith told team reporter Ben Wright on Thursday.

Impact Mukhtar has been sidelined for the last few weeks with a hip injury, missing all of his side's preseason games in February. But the 2022 MLS MVP is expected to be fit enough to be involved against New York City this weekend, though whether he can start is not yet certain.

Misses preseason finale Mukhtar (hip) was held out of Nashville's final preseason game against FC Cincinnati on Friday and will be questionable for next weekend's MLS opener against NYCFC.

Impact Mukhtar did not feature in any of Nashville's last three preseason games in February due to a hip injury. Manager Gary Smith told reporters after Friday's match that Mukhtar is "feeling sore but making progress," and is hopeful that he will be able to return for the opening game of the 2023 campaign next weekend. Teal Bunbury could replace him alongside C.J. Sapong up front if necessary.

Has quiet game in playoff loss Mukhtar took a shot on target and created a chance in Saturday's 1-0 Round One playoff defeat against the Galaxy. He also made an interception in the match.

Impact Mukhtar did not have his best game of the season on Saturday and his side was bounced out of the playoffs in the first round by Los Angeles. Still, the MVP award finalist had a career year with 23 goals and seven assists in 34 MLS appearances (33 starts), and he maybe even has an outside chance of contending for a spot in Germany's World Cup roster.
