What happened: Luna is expected to miss multiple months with a knee issue, and a procedure is viewed as the likely next step. A final decision on that procedure will help determine the full recovery timetable.

Why it matters: Real Salt Lake now have to plan for a prolonged absence rather than a short-term injury spell during the regular-season run-in. It also changes the near-term outlook around Luna's summer market interest, which had already pointed toward a later move.

What to watch: Watch for a firm decision on the knee procedure and any updated recovery estimate. Real Salt Lake's next matchday squads will show how the club redistributes Luna's minutes.
