Grêmio handed two boosts before Remo clash; see | OneFootball

Grêmio have two pieces of good news for the match against Remo on Wednesday the 7th at 7:30 p.m. (Brasília time) at Mangueirão in Belém, in the 29th round of the Brazilian Championship. Recovering from injuries, Diego Caito and Marlon are available to coach Renato Portaluppi.

RTI Esporte Agency has learned that the internal expectation is that both players will be able to train normally with the group by Sunday, which would open the possibility of them being included in the squad for the clash with Remo.

Diego Caito is closer to returning

Diego Caito is recovering from a grade 1 muscle injury. The full-back missed the match against Palmeiras, which marked Renato Portaluppi’s return as Grêmio manager, and since then had been doing specific work to treat the issue.

Taking part in on-field activities represents progress in the process. If he can complete the planned schedule without any new limitations, Diego Caito may return to ball work and later be reintegrated into higher-intensity training.

The time left until the match in Belém still allows the club to assess his condition carefully. The coaching staff do not intend to rush any steps and should take into account both the injury recovery and the conditioning needed for the game.

Marlon faces a longer recovery

Marlon’s situation requires greater attention. The full-back was diagnosed with a grade 2 muscle injury and has not played since the decisive Gre-Nal in the quarter-finals of the Copa do Brasil. Since then, the player has missed matches against Vitória, Vasco, Botafogo, and Palmeiras.

Grêmio monitor both players

The progress of Marlon and Caito gives Renato Portaluppi more options for the remainder of the Brasileirão. Both still need to complete stages before their returns can be confirmed, but this Wednesday’s training session represents progress in the planning.

Grêmio had a few more days of preparation before traveling to Belém. During that period, the coaching staff monitored how the full-backs responded to the on-field work. However, they have not yet decided whether both will be included in the squad against Remo.
