Portland Timbers midfielder Diego Valeri will not be available for Sunday's game against the New York Red Bulls and the club is still evaluating captain Liam Ridgewell's status.

Valeri, who missed Monday's game at Colorado due to a contusion, was unable to train fully Thursday.

Timbers coach Caleb Porter said that Valeri will remain in Portland this weekend to train with T2, rather than travel with the team to New York.

The club will reevaluate Valeri next week to see if he can play in Portland's July 13 game against the Montreal Impact.

"Valeri didn't progress today to full training," Porter said. "He did progress. He's getting better, but it's still really sore and swollen. So, we're hoping next week. We'll keep him back and continue to work with him."

Porter said Ridgewell, who has been dealing with a knee injury and missed Monday's game at Colorado, would travel with the team to New York. Porter will make a final decision on whether to play Ridgewell after he evaluates the center back at training Saturday.

"Ridgy did train today, but we got to figure out if he's healthy enough to play in the game," Porter said. "We know we have three games as well coming up, so we have to be smart with how we manage that. With him, we'll travel him. Whether or not we play him will depend on how he looks in New York when we train on Saturday."
