FC Cincinnati's Aaron Boupendza was involved in an altercation at a bar Monday that resulted in the forward's jaw getting broken, according to Tom Bogert and Pablo Maurer of The Athletic.

In a police report obtained by The Athletic, a witness alleged that local professional boxer Quashawn Toler was the one who struck Boupendza. Toler has been listed as a suspect in the report.

On Wednesday, the club announced that Boupendza would undergo surgery to repair a broken jaw that would keep him out for six to eight weeks. FC Cincinnati described the situation as an "off-field injury."

While Bogert and Maurer reported that the club views the forward as a "victim" in the situation allegedly involving Toler, Cincinnati's "patience is growing thin" with Boupendza.

Prior to the latest incident, the team "was ready to move on" from the 27-year-old "this summer" and look for a transfer.

In 13 matches across all competitions in 2024, Boupendza recorded three goals. He was previously suspended by the club for disciplinary reasons and was also fined by the MLS on March 5 in violation of the league's Mass Confrontation Policy.
