Injury Calf
Est. Return 11/22/2025
Unlikely against LAFC
Rios (calf) is unlikely to feature against LAFC on Saturday, coach Jesper Sorensen said to the media, according to Har Journalist. "It's going to be difficult."
ANALYSIS
Rios has been dealing with a minor calf issue that will likely make him miss the playoff game against LAFC on Saturday. This is a blow for the Whitecaps since he has been a regular starter in the frontline since mid September. That said, Brian White (hamstring) is fully back fit for the game which suggests the potential absence of Rios will not impact much the starting XI.

Deals with minor calf issue
Rios was training indoors on Tuesday as he is dealing with a minor calf issue, coach Jesper Sorensen said in a press conference, according to Har Journalist. "He's rehabbing from a minor calf thing. Maybe hopefully you're going to see him on the pitch. You'll be coming here sometime before the game, let's see, and if you don't, I expect you to ask me again later on."

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Chivas to make move?
Guadalajara are close to signing Rios, according to Tom Bogert of MLSSoccer.com.
ANALYSIS
Chivas need to sign a striker that can compete with Santiago Ormeno and add depth to the position. Rios is an attractive option despite his lack of success at the MLS level, and a deal is very close to being finalized, according to the latest reports. Rios is a backup plan for Chivas, though, as they originally wanted to sign Brandon Vazquez, but FC Cincinnati rejected the approach.
