Calleri trains with São Paulo squad, but physical contact is limited | OneFootball

Jonathan Calleri continues to get closer to his return to the pitch. This Thursday, the Argentine striker took part in São Paulo’s training session, but with controlled physical contact.

Up until now, Calleri had been training alongside his teammates, but without physical contact due to the surgery he underwent on his knee. Now, the number 9 for Tricolor is beginning to advance even further in his recovery process, although he is still avoiding collisions with other players.

Pablo Maia (tendon injury in his right foot) and Rodriguinho (pain in his right knee) also took to the field, but worked separately, accompanied by the club’s physiotherapists.

Enzo Díaz, meanwhile, has become a loss for the remainder of the season. On Wednesday, the left-back underwent herniorrhaphy in Argentina to correct an inguinal hernia on his left side, which had been causing him a lot of pain and even kept him out of the match against Grêmio.

The training session

This Thursday, the São Paulo players started the day with a possession drill in a limited space. Afterwards, the squad also took part in a scrimmage between two teams on a reduced pitch.

São Paulo will return to training this Friday as they prepare for the derby against Corinthians, which takes place on the 20th at 7:30 p.m. (Brasília time), at Neo Química Arena, for the 34th round of the Brazilian Championship.
