The hits keep coming for Real Salt Lake.

Star midfielder Diego Luna announced on social media that he’ll miss the rest of the season with a torn meniscus.

“I haven’t been the Diego Luna that many of you know. I want to apologize for everyone that has been supporting me and believes in me because through such a difficult year for me, there’s been a constant battle within myself,” Luna wrote on Instagram. “That hasn’t allowed me to express myself and reach my potential.”

Luna had five goals and three assists in 18 appearances for RSL this season. Luna, who starred for the U.S. men’s national team in the 2025 Gold Cup, was left off the U.S.’s World Cup roster.

The injury will keep him from the next international window, as well. The U.S. will play friendlies against Peru, Chile, Mexico and Canada beginning later this month.

“And now my season has been cut short, and a new chapter of recovery begins,” Luna continued. “With a torn meniscus that needs to be repaired. I will use this time to heal mentally and physically and come back stronger than ever and ready to take over because that’s who I am.”

RSL fortunes have cratered after a promising start. The club is in the midst of an 11-game winless streak. Real Salt Lake lost young star Zavier Gozo to the Premier League last month, and now won’t have Luna to finish the season.

Luna wrote there is “frustration, anger, sadness,” but realizes that “this is another opportunity to show people who I am.”

“I have to bet on myself through all the noise and come out on top,” he wrote. “I will see the field next year.”
