Amid resignations in the board and a turbulent backstage after a thrashing, the São Paulo squad was given the day off this Saturday. The players began preparations for the match against Internacional on Friday and will resume activities this Sunday.

Coach Hernán Crespo will have three more training sessions before the clash against Colorado, for the 37th round of the Brazilian Championship, scheduled for Wednesday.

News from the return to training

On Friday’s return to training, Luciano, Arboleda, and Ferreirinha, all injured, made progress in their recoveries and participated in field activities with the club’s physiotherapy team. In addition to them, Rodriguinho, who is recovering from a respiratory condition, took part in physical activities on the field.

Turbulent times

São Paulo is going through a turbulent period both on and off the field. Last Thursday, Tricolor was thrashed by Fluminense 6-0, with a team heavily depleted due to injuries.

The next day, football director Carlos Belmonte and directors Nelson Marques Ferreira and Fernando Bracalle Ambrogi resigned from their positions at the club. President Julio Casares also gave a press conference to address the crisis.

Standing in the table

São Paulo is currently eighth in the Brazilian Championship, but could be caught by Corinthians this Sunday. Tricolor still dreams of a spot in the Pre-Libertadores and hopes that Fluminense or Cruzeiro wins the Copa do Brasil, so that the team in eighth place in the national competition qualifies for the continental tournament.
