Santos held, this Friday, the penultimate training session before the match against Red Bull Bragantino, for the 25th round of the Brazilian Championship. Coach Juan Pablo Vojvoda conducted a tactical activity at CT Rei Pelé and worked on set pieces.
The big news among those called up should be Willian Arão. The midfielder is finally recovered from a calf injury. He has been training with the squad since the beginning of the week.
The coach will also have the return of Igor Vinícius and Zé Ivaldo. Both the defender and the forward are back from suspension.
Vojvoda, however, is still without Neymar. The attacking midfielder was diagnosed with a right rectus femoris muscle injury in his thigh. He is expected to be sidelined for about a month.
Midfielders Gabriel Bontempo and Victor Hugo are also dealing with muscle injuries. In addition, left-back Escobar is another definite absence. The Argentine is suspended due to accumulation of yellow cards.
The squad returns to training this Saturday, when they will finish preparations for the match against Bragantino. The game will be on Sunday, at 6:30 pm (Brasília time), at Cicero De Souza Marques, in Bragança Paulista (SP).
