Jonathan Bell - Expected to be option Bell (hamstring) is an option for Saturday's match against Minnesota, according to manager Brian Schmetzer, per Jeremiah Oshan of Sounder at Heart.
Impact Bell has missed the past three games, but after getting back into full team training this week, he is now ready for a return. The defender has mainly gone unused on the bench this season, likely serving in that same role Saturday, having a slight chance of getting some minutes to test his legs.

Nathan - Available for Saturday Nathan (quadriceps) is available for Saturday's match against Minnesota, according to manager Brian Schmetzer, per Jeremiah Oshan of Sounder at Heart.
Impact Nathan returned to individual training around a week ago, and he appears to finally be ready for action again. This is huge news for the club, as the defender has not appeared since the first match of the season. That being said, he did start in his one appearance, giving a slight feeling he could see the start Saturday, although they may keep him on the bench after his extended absence.

Pedro De la Vega - Still doubtful De la Vega (hamstring) is still in doubt for Saturday's clash with Minnesota, according to manager Brian Schmetzer.
Impact De la Vega remains in doubt despite being closing to a full return to the starting XI. The forward has been nearing a full return, but has struggled to get medically cleared at the final hurdle. Still with the flashes of talent he's shown it's not surprising that de la Vega isn't being rushed back into a major role.

Jonathan Bell - Set for full training Bell (hamstring) is expected to make a full return to training before Saturday's clash with Minnesota, according to manager Brian Schmetzer.
Impact Bell is set to return from his hamstring injury, at least in some capacity before Saturday's match. The hamstring injury is likely still going to prevent him from starting straight away, but any return to full team training would be a great sign for his availability at the weekend.

Nouhou Tolo - Hoping to return Tolo (international duty) is targeting a return ahead of Saturday's clash with Minnesota, according to manager Brian Schmetzer.
Impact Tolo is expected to return from international duty with Cameroon before Saturday's match. The defender would be a major boon with so many other defensive options struggling with injury. Tolo should be able to play fully if he returns in time, likely taking a starting role immediately.

Nathan - Still working alone Nathan (quad) trained alone during Thursday's session, Niko Moreno of MLS Espanol reports.
Impact Nathan remains in individual training, putting him in heavy doubt for Saturday's match. The defender has missed more than a month with the quad issue and while he seems closer he's unlikely to play. If Nathan makes a surprise return to full training Friday he would have some chance of featuring against Kansas City.

Leo Chu - Set for return Chu (hip) should be available for Saturday's trip to Kansas City, according to Jeremiah Oshan of Sounder at Heart.
Impact Chu has missed over a month and is now nearing a return. The winger should be competing for a starting role when fully fit, but after an extended absence he may not be ready straight away. Chu has already struggled with two injuries this season so Seattle might be cautious with the winger.
