Martín Cáceres had to be substituted due to injury in the last game against Seattle Sounders, and he had already missed the previous one against Sporting KC due to suspension.

Recently, LA Galaxy bolstered their defense with the loan signing of Carlos Emiro Garcés from Liga BetPlay Dimayor I club Deportivo Pereira for the remainder of the 2024 MLS season.

This injury update comes as a relief for LA Galaxy fans, as it indicates that key players like Martín Cáceres and Dejan Joveljic are on the road to recovery and may be available for the upcoming matches. However, caution is being exercised with Cáceres, given his age and the need to avoid risking further injury.

With the team looking to maintain their unbeaten streak and continue their strong start to the season, having key players return from injury will be crucial as they prepare for the highly anticipated showdown against their cross-town rivals, LAFC.
