Domínguez has outs and boosts v Chapecoense, club updates call-ups | OneFootball

Atlético released, this Wednesday (01), an update on the situation of the seven players called up by their national teams and the logistics for the clash against Chapecoense. Galo faces the team from Santa Catarina this Thursday (02), at 7:00 p.m., at Arena Condá, in Chapecó, for the 9th round of the Brazilian Championship.

Among the players who were on duty with Ecuador’s national team, only Alan Franco will be available for the match. The midfielder will travel from São Paulo to Chapecó on the morning of the game itself, where he will join the rest of the black-and-white delegation. Alan Minda and Preciado, meanwhile, return to Belo Horizonte and will not take part in the match, being available to coach Eduardo Domínguez only for Sunday’s fixture, when Atlético hosts Athletico-PR at Arena MRV.

Interestingly, in Ecuador’s last match, only Alan Franco started, playing 45 minutes. Preciado came on in the second half and was on the field for around 20 minutes, while Alan Minda was not used.

Another confirmed absentee is midfielder/defensive midfielder Cissé, who was with Guinea’s national team and will arrive in Belo Horizonte only on Friday (03) and, therefore, will not face Chapecoense.

On the other hand, Chilean center-back Iván Román strengthens the team in Chapecó. The defender heads straight from São Paulo to the city in Santa Catarina later tonight. He did not take the field in Chile’s 4-1 thrashing by New Zealand last Monday.

Rounding out the list, young center-back Vitão, who was with Brazil’s Under-20 national team, has already returned to Belo Horizonte and will travel normally with the Atlético delegation for the match.
