FOXBOROUGH, Mass. – New England Revolution forward Juan Agudelo underwent a successful minor procedure to reduce a small facial bone fracture at Massachusetts General Hospital on Friday.

The Barnegat, N.J. native suffered the fracture during the first half of the United States Men’s National Team’s match against Jamaica on Friday, Feb. 3. Agudelo made two appearances, including one start, with the USMNT in its initial camp of 2017. He has collected 23 caps and three goals for his international career.

He finished the MLS regular season at a torrid pace, recording four goals and three assists in the Revolution’s final seven League matches.
