Mexican forward Hirving “Chucky” Lozano has reportedly been temporarily separated from San Diego FC’s first team due to an internal disciplinary issue.
The situation stems from a heated argument in the locker room after Lozano was substituted at halftime in the match against Houston Dynamo. Reports indicate that the player “was very upset” about being substituted.

As a consequence, Lozano was not included in the squad for the last regular season match against Portland Timbers.
San Diego FC coach Mikey Varas limited himself to confirming the situation in a press conference: “We had a situation that we are handling internally,” he stated.
The separation casts doubt on the Mexican’s participation in the upcoming MLS Playoffs this Sunday.
Despite the incident, Lozano has had an important season in MLS, recording nine goals and 10 assists and being a key player in the club’s historic qualification for the postseason in their first year in the league.
