Carrillo’s return gives Dorival more options at Corinthians | OneFootball

Recovered from a left ankle injury, midfielder André Carrillo emerges as another option for Dorival Júnior in the midfield of Corinthians. The Peruvian was even used by the coach in the 1-0 victory over Vitória last Saturday, even after being away from the field for two months.

With Carrillo's return, Dorival now has a wide range of options for forming the sector. The Peruvian joins Maycon, Martínez, Charles, Ryan, Breno Bidon, and Rodrigo Garro, as well as Luiz Gustavo, who is only 19 years old.

The also young André Luiz, of the same age, had been consolidating himself as an important piece of the team and securing his place in the squad. However, the midfielder suffered a right ankle sprain after training on the 17th and became unavailable.

Until then, André had been showing great potential since his debut against Fluminense. Subsequently, he scored his first goal as a professional in the 3-0 victory over Mirassol and, even in the 3-1 defeat to Santos, he was one of the few highlights of the team.

Charles, on the other hand, was out for just over a month after being diagnosed with iron deficiency. Recovered, the midfielder returned in great style: he was decisive last Sunday, appearing well in the small area and scoring the goal that secured the victory over Vitória.

Meanwhile, Maycon did not play in the last round due to receiving the third yellow card against Atlético-MG, in the 29th round of the Brasileirão. However, he will be available again for the match against Grêmio on Sunday.

With the positive result, Corinthians reached 39 points and occupies the tenth position in the Brasileirão. The match against the Tricolor gaúcho takes place at 4 PM (Brasília time), at the Neo Química Arena, for the 31st round of the national competition.
