ATLANTA (Oct. 9, 2018) – Today, Atlanta United announced that midfielder Miguel Almirón is week-to-week with a left hamstring injury. He suffered the injury during United’s 2-1 win over New England Revolution on Oct. 6.

Because of the injury, Almirón won’t be able to travel with the Paraguayan National Team during the current FIFA window, which he was called up for duty. He will now stay in Atlanta to rehabilitate the injury.

With the international break upon us, the United team (20-6-6, 66 points) is off this weekend and returns to action on Sunday, Oct. 21 when they hosts Chicago Fire (3:00 p.m., FOX Sports South, Sports Radio 92-9 The Game).
