Flamengo without four players for Lanús clash in Copa Sul-Americana | OneFootball

Flamengo and Lanús (ARG) face off at 9:30 PM (Brasília time) this Thursday (19th)

Flamengo is approaching another commitment this season. This Thursday (19th), the Rubro-Negro will face Lanús (ARG) at the Estadio Ciudad de Lanús, in Argentina, for the first leg of the Recopa Sudamericana. For the match, coach Filipe Luís will not be able to count on four players.

Saúl remains out as he recovers from surgery on his left ankle. Additionally, Jorginho has been diagnosed with a left hamstring injury and will also not be available.

Sent off in last year's Libertadores semifinal, Gonzalo Plata will miss the game due to a two-match suspension. The winger served the first match in the final against Palmeiras in 2025 and will serve the second in the first leg of the Recopa. Meanwhile, Wallace Yan was not listed due to muscle pain.

WILL VARELA AND PEDRO PLAY?

Varela was left out of Flamengo's last game against Botafogo due to a right ankle issue. However, the full-back participated in activities over the last two days with the group without limitations and will strengthen the Rubro-Negro against the Argentine team.

Meanwhile, Pedro felt discomfort in his groin during the warm-up in the same game. However, tests did not detect any injury. Therefore, the forward will travel normally with the squad to Argentina this Tuesday (17th).
