Back with FCC II Jimenez returns to the reserves side, appearing in three matches since returning from injury.

Impact Jimenez will likely remain in the MLS NEXT Pro league until there is a need for more players with the senior side, already making three MLS appearances. He will also get more playing time with FCC II, starting all three games while already logging in an assist.

Out once again Jimenez (foot) is not an option for Saturday's match against the New York Red Bulls, according to the MLS injury report.

Impact Jimenez was held out for training Friday, implying he would not be an option Saturday, and that has come to fruition after he was listed as out on the club's availability report. Luckily for the club, the midfielder has only appeared once all season as a substitute, with his absence not being an issue. He will now hope to see some improvements in health over the next week, looking to return against Montreal on April 13.

Doesn't train Friday Jimenez (undisclosed) was not spotted in training Friday ahead of Saturday's game against the Red Bulls, Laurel Pfahler of The Queen City Press reports.

Impact Jimenez is dealing with a minor knock and was training inside, according to Pfahler, but his availability for this weekend remains uncertain. Even if deemed available, the youngster is not expected to play a prominent role for Cincinnati in midfield, and should be a depth option in a very best-case scenario.

Ready for start of season Jimenez (lower leg) has fully recovered from an injury that left him out since July of 2023, having started training back in November and now returning with the club for pre-season...

Impact Jimenez has been training for a while now, so it should come as no surprise that the midfielder will be ready to return in a month for the club's first match of the season against Toronto on Feb. 25. He started training in Cincinnati back in November and since then worked on his development and recovery in Brazil while playing for a futsal team, now being ready to join the club for pre-season training. The 16-year-old will hope to gain more time on the field leading into the new campaign, as he only registered a mere one minute in his first season as a professional footballer.

Single appearance Murphy made just one appearance before injury ended his 2023.

Impact Murphy played just a single minute, which isn't much but at the very least it was an MLS debut for the midfielder. Jimenez will now hope to get fit during the offseason before making his way into pre-season.

Out for opener Jimenez (lower leg) is out for Sunday's clash with RBNY, according to the FC Cincinnati injury report.

Impact Jimenez will miss the first match in the best-of-three though there is a chance he could return later in the series. That said coming back from a fractured lower leg it's unlikely that Jimenez will be rushed into just his second appearance of the season in the playoffs.

Remains in individual training Jimenez (lower leg) is in individual training Wednesday, Pat Brennan reports.

Impact Jimenez returned to individual training Wednesday, giving him a chance to get back on the pitch for the opening round of the playoffs. The midfielder has made just a single in 2023, and has only been in the first team squad three times all season. With that in mind the midfielder has next to no chance to see run in the playoffs.

Works in gym Jimenez (lower leg) was working in the weight room in sneakers Tuesday, per FC Cincinnati beat report Pat Brennan.

Impact Jimenez is still working on his return to the pitch as he works on strengthen drills in the gym. He may not be ready to return until the start of the playoffs, as he will need a few weeks of full training before he is an option for the team again.

Out of walking boot Jimenez (lower leg) is out of his walking boot as he started light work outdoors following his fractured leg injury, per FC Cincinnati Beat reporter Pat Brennan.

Impact Jimenez is working without a boot and is working on his return from a fractured leg. It is still possible that the midfielder can make it back before the end of the regular season, but will need at least a month at most to return to the pitch and regain fitness before he is an option again.

Set to miss several weeks Jimenez suffered a lower leg fracture and is set to miss between six to eight weeks, head coach Pat Noonan told reporters Friday.

Impact Noonan didn't want to specify a timeline on the availability of the midfielder, but he said the team will re-evaluate him in six weeks and go from there. Jimenez hasn't played much this season and is merely a backup option, so his absence shouldn't affect many fantasy decisions going forward.
