ANALYSIS
Kone had trained in full the previous day and even spoke to the press, making his early departure from the session a concerning sign of a potential injury. The midfielder had started both of Canada's last two friendlies and was expected to feature in the starting XI, with nothing yet confirmed by Canada Soccer leaving his situation unclear. Should an injury be confirmed, Nathan Saliba or Jonathan Osorio could step in to fill his place in midfield

ANALYSIS
Kone is putting together a solid season in MLS in which he has started 12 of his 16 appearances, recording one goal on 18 shots, two assists and nine chances created along the way. If Kone does decide to move somewhere, it will likely be a spot where he can feature regularly ahead of Canada's appearance in the 2022 World Cup.
