São Paulo trained on the morning of this Thursday (11) at the Barra Funda training center and continues to monitor the recovery of its extensive list of injured players. Today, midfielder Oscar advanced in his work, now in the final stage of the process before being released for activities with his teammates.

If the number 8 is expected to return in about a week, some other names continue in their recovery processes, with daily evaluations by the Tricolor's medical team.

Attacking midfielder Lucas (removal of fibrosis from the right knee by arthroscopy) and forward André Silva (posterior cruciate ligament injury and anterior cruciate ligament strain in the right knee) remained in the club's REFFIS Plus for muscle strengthening exercises with physiotherapists.

Lucas recently underwent a minor surgical procedure to remove the fibrosis that was bothering him and is expected to take about a month to fully recover. Meanwhile, André Silva continues his program without undergoing surgery, which was recommended by the doctors but not accepted by the forward.

Meanwhile, forwards Ryan (REFFIS Plus and gym) and Calleri, and midfielder Hugo (REFFIS Plus and field) also followed their knee injury recovery schedules, without significant progress updates.

Meanwhile, midfielder Luiz Gustavo, who is following a medical protocol after pulmonary thromboembolism, has been accompanying the other Tricolor athletes in all non-contact and risk-free physical activities, as he is not yet cleared for contact activities, besides aerobic and strength exercises.

Tricolor returns to work at the Barra Funda training center on the morning of this Friday, when coach Crespo will really start to define the lineup for the home match against Botafogo. Then, a final training session on the afternoon of Saturday (13), for the last adjustments before the Brasileirão match.
