Danilo to squad after Pedro’s Flamengo moment: “No excuses” | OneFootball

What Did Danilo Say About Pedro's New Injury, Flamengo's Striker?

Danilo commented on the new injury suffered by Pedro at this final stretch of the season. In an interview after the derby with Fluminense, the Flamengo defender lamented the absence of the number 9 in the matches, but made it clear that the squad has the quality to make up for the striker's absence.

— Pedro is a very important player. We were very upset with this new injury of his and with his absence in the upcoming games. But obviously, it’s another moment to show the strength of the group — he said, before concluding:

— We have players up to the task, but with different ways of playing. There are no excuses, just look to the side. We hope that Pedro returns as soon as possible, he is a very important player, but in the meantime, it’s up to us to show the strength of the group — finished Danilo.

WHAT HAPPENED TO PEDRO, FLAMENGO'S STRIKER?

Pedro had been sidelined due to a fracture in his right forearm. Showing progress in his recovery process, the athlete began participating in on-field activities with his teammates.

However, in the midst of this, Pedro suffered a muscle injury in his left thigh during training last Tuesday (18), at CT Ninho do Urubu. Given this situation, the striker remains a question mark for the final stretch of the season.
