Looked like his leg got caught in the turf. Borrero leaving with tears in his eyes. Just an awful sight, hard to watch.

During the Revolution’s 1-1 draw with FC Cincinnati, forward Dylan Borrero went down with a non-contact left knee injury that forced him to be substituted from the match.
On Tuesday, Bruce Arena announced to the media that, “it’s really a difficult injury. We feel for Borrero. He was just starting to move forward as a player. Obviously, he is very promising. We’ll get him back next year. I’m afraid he’s going to have to deal with rehab for the rest of 2023.”

Borrero has made 20 appearances (14 starts) for the New England Revolution since his arrival in 2022. He has tallied 5 goals and 3 assists on 35 total shots (13 on target). He has a two-year consistency of 78% pass accuracy with the club and has tallied 2 yellow cards and 1 red card in his Revolution career.
Dylan Borrero's season-ending injury: My understanding is #NERevs can sign another U22 Initiative player as long as their salary budget charge doesn't exceed Borrero's.
So there's some flexibility (w/ three DPs) for one U22 Initiative signing. Summer window is July 5 to Aug 2. https://t.co/puj6hYN1G3
