Corinthians training update: Memphis back on the pitch as Vitinho starts transition | OneFootball

Memphis Depay returned to the pitch at CT Joaquim Grava on Thursday, taking part in Corinthians training after shaking off pain in his left ankle.

According to Globo.com, the Dutch forward had missed the previous two sessions after landing awkwardly in the derby against Santos.

He is likely to be available to Fernando Diniz for Sunday’s game with Chapecoense at 19:30 Brasília time, at Neo Química Arena, in the Campeonato Brasileiro.

Vitinho was also on the grass, starting his physical transition as he nears the end of recovery from a left knee meniscus injury, taking part in partial group work.

André Ramalho, André and Yuri Alberto remain sidelined.

Ramalho is recovering from labyrinthitis, while André and Yuri Alberto continue treatment for thigh injuries.

Diniz oversaw a 10 against 10 tactical exercise during Thursday’s session, and the squad will train again on Friday morning.
