Carrillo back in training, could boost Corinthians against Bragantino | OneFootball

Corinthians continued their preparations for the match against Red Bull Bragantino on Tuesday morning at CT Dr. Joaquim Grava. The highlight of the day was midfielder André Carrillo.

The Peruvian trained partially with the group and may reinforce Timão in the match valid for the third round of the Brazilian Championship. He missed the team’s game against Palmeiras last Sunday due to discomfort in his left thigh adductor.

Coach Dorival Júnior has two confirmed absences for the match. They are: Hugo (right knee injury) and Kaio César (right thigh injury).

Another headache is midfielder José Martínez. The Venezuelan is said to have been diagnosed with a torn anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee after reporting back late. Corinthians has not yet confirmed the injury.
