Miguel Moscardo celebrated his first training session with the professionals on his social media. “First training with the professionals. Thank you very much to everyone who made this possible. Thank God.” The post was shared by his brother, Gabriel Moscardo, who currently plays for Braga in Portugal.

“Congratulations, brother. First training with the professionals. It's just the beginning,” wrote Gabriel on his official Instagram account.

Dorival keeping an eye on the youth

Coach Dorival Júnior has been betting on the youth categories of Corinthians. Without reinforcements, due to a transfer ban, and with a short squad available, the coach has started to closely observe the Filhos do Terrão and selected many youngsters to work with the main team.

Some of them even became solutions for the team's problems, like the forward Gui Negão. Besides the young player, Kayke, Dieguinho, Luiz Gustavo Bahia, André Luiz, and Jacaré are other boys frequently included in the professional team's matches.
