York United hit with crushing blow! Rising star Kadin Martin-Pereux sidelined for the season with ACL tear. The 21-year-old dynamo, fresh off a sizzling start with 2 assists in 14 appearances, saw his breakout year cut short in a cruel twist of fate during training. The Victoria native's homecoming against Pacific FC turned into heartbreak city. While York gets cap relief, they lose a key cog in their midfield machinery. Martin-Pereux is already on the comeback trail post-surgery, but Nine Stripes fans will have to wait till 2025 to see their young gun back in action. Tough break for York, but don't count this resilient squad out just yet!
