Out for the Libertadores, Kaio César has a return date | OneFootball

Absent from the black-and-white squad since the match against Santos on March 15, forward Kaio César is close to returning to the Corinthians matchday squad. Central do Timão has learned that the player is expected to be included for the game against Vitória next Saturday, in a Brasileirão clash.

On Tuesday afternoon, a meeting took place after training, and it was internally decided that the player would be held back to return only when he was 100% fit. As a result, he will miss Timão’s Libertadores match against Independiente Santa Fe this Wednesday (15).

Physical issues

Since arriving at the club, Kaio César has alternated strong performances with physical problems. In his second match for Timão, he stood out, but ended up feeling pain and was sidelined for more than a month due to a thigh injury.

After his recovery period, he returned to action as a starter in the derby against Santos at Vila Belmiro, when he provided an assist. However, shortly afterward, he experienced discomfort again, this time in the hamstring of his right thigh, which ruled him out.
