The Portland Timbers will once again be dealing with significant injuries Saturday when they travel to face New York City FC.

Timbers captain Liam Ridgewell (quad injury), forward Fanendo Adi (hamstring injury) and goalkeeper Jake Gleeson (hamstring injury) have all been ruled out for the game, Timbers coach Caleb Porter said.

"It's looking like they won't be healthy," Porter said.

Porter had hoped that all three players would be healthy in time for the game against NYCFC following a two-week break to accommodate the international window, but none of the three players have progressed enough to play in Saturday's match.

Ridgewell has returned to training, but isn't yet fully fit, Porter said.

"Ridgy has been back in training, but isn't fit enough to play 90 minutes," Porter said. "So, he won't factor into this game. We are expecting him to factor into the RSL game (on Sept. 16). He's on the mend."

Porter said that Adi was further behind Ridgewell and had not yet been healthy enough to return to training.

Gleeson has been back in training, but still needs to time to get back to full strength and sharpness, Porter said.
