The 27-year-old Palestine international suffered the injury during Columbus’ 1-1 draw against Orlando City on Sunday night at ScottsMiracle-Gro Field.
Abou Ali is one of Columbus’ three designated players along with forward Diego Rossi and midfielder Dániel Gazdag. He was acquired from Egyptian powerhouse Al Ahly in July 2025 for a fee of $7.5 million and up to $1 million in add-ons.
Abou Ali has totaled 8g/2a in 12 games for Columbus. This year, he scored a team-best five goals in seven games.
“I will come back stronger than before and now I am excited to begin this journey back with my loved ones by my side,” Abou Ali wrote on Instagram.
