🤕 Fluminense confirm injuries to Cano and Ignácio | OneFootball

Fluminense officially announced the situations of Cano and Ignácio on Thursday night (10).

Both had their injuries confirmed after undergoing tests.

Ignácio, who had been a starter, will be out for up to 15 days due to a grade 2 injury to the anterior muscles of his left thigh.

He had already missed the match against Platense last Tuesday (8).

Cano, meanwhile, suffered a grade 3 injury to the posterior muscles of his right thigh during an attempt to finish against the Argentine team.

The No. 14 will be sidelined for two months.

Without Ignácio, the Thiago Silva-Millán pairing will get an extended run whenever the No. 3 is not rested — which will be the case in Saturday’s (12) clash against Atlético-MG.

Castillo, meanwhile, could become the first option whenever Hulk does not play.

He could return to the starting lineup as early as the match against Atlético, since Hulk will not be able to face his former club because of the agreement between the parties.
