Houston Dynamo FC winger Nelson Quiñónes will miss the 2024 MLS season with a knee injury, the club announced Wednesday.
The 21-year-old recently got injured while representing Colombia at the Conmbeol Pre-Olympic Tournament in Venezuela.
Quiñones was coming off a breakout 2023 season with Houston where he tallied 4g/2a in 28 matches (19 starts). He also helped the Dynamo reach the Western Conference Final and win the US Open Cup.
A U22 Initiative signing, Quiñones initially joined Houston in July 2022 on loan from Colombian top-flight side Once Caldas. His purchase option was exercised last summer.
Heading into 2024, Houston's season begins on Feb. 24 vs. Sporting Kansas City (8:30 pm ET | MLS Season Pass).
