Nonato fit to boost Fluminense in Copa do Brasil final vs Flamengo | OneFootball

Midfielder Nonato has become an option for Fluminense in the final of the Campeonato Carioca, next Sunday at 6 p.m. at the Maracanã, against Flamengo.

The player was cleared by the medical department, trained with the squad this Thursday, and is available to Luis Zubeldía, who will evaluate him in the next three training sessions before the final.

The initial forecast was that the athlete would be sidelined for three weeks, but he returned to training nine days after the injury was confirmed. The midfielder had already suffered another muscle problem, this time in his left leg, which kept him out of the team for two weeks.

Nonato felt pain during the first match of the State Championship semifinal against Vasco da Gama, when he came on in the second half. The midfielder ended up missing only two games: against Palmeiras in the Brazilian Championship, and the second leg of the Carioca semifinal.
