Impact Urruti has 62 goals and 30 assists in almost 250 MLS appearances across stints with Toronto, Portland, Dallas, Montreal and Houston throughout his career. The 30-year-old netted seven times last season, and he still has the talent to slide right into his new side's starting lineup up front.

Six shots in loss Urruti shot six times off goal during Friday's 2-0 defeat to Portland.

Creates two chances in loss Urruti took two shots (two on target), created two chances and sent one cross (none accurate) during the 2-1 loss to Minnesota United on Saturday.

Impact Urruti was average at best in the tough loss Saturday. The forward had his fair share of chances, but the best part of his performance was his creativity. He only created two legitimate chances, but he did create ample space for his team as well. Urruti has not seen the score sheet in a month and until he does again, his value is rather low along with his ceiling.

Back in training Urruti was seen participating in Tuesday's training session, according to Victor Araiza of The Striker Texas.

Impact Urruti has missed the last three matches while in quarantine protocols but is now on track to return by Saturday's match against Colorado. With six goals in 15 appearances this season, Urruti will hope to face a defense that has conceded just 16 goals in 16 games.

Unlikely for Wednesday Urruti (health and safety protocols) is highly unlikely for Wednesday's match against Austin, head coach Tab Ramos revealed to the media.

Impact Urruti missed the match over the weekend and doesn't appear likely to be ready Wednesday, only a few days later.

Impact Urruti had his place taken in the lineup by Mateo Bajamich, who took five corners and logged two shots in this game. It's not fully clear how long Urruti will be in the protocols, as there's not much time until Wednesday's trip to Austin FC. If he can't play, Cory Baird or Bajamich could start at striker until Urruti is back.
