Memphis back in Corinthians training after medical all-clear, trio out | OneFootball

Memphis Depay has once again rejoined the Corinthians squad. The forward took part normally in training held on Thursday morning (3) and took another step in recovering from the ankle pain he had been feeling in recent days.

The issue arose during the derby against Santos last Sunday. In a play involving Luan Peres, the Santos defender tried to clear the ball and ended up hitting the Dutchman’s foot. Memphis landed awkwardly and needed medical treatment on the pitch.

Despite the scare, the No. 10 was able to stay on the field and finished the match. In the following days, however, he was kept out of training with the rest of the group because of the discomfort. According to information reported by Meu Timão, Memphis has recovered and therefore returned to collective activities on Thursday.

The same did not happen with Yuri Alberto. The striker remains under the care of the Medical Department and worked indoors at CT Dr. Joaquim Grava, without taking part in training with his teammates.

André Luiz and André Ramalho also remain out of the squad’s normal routine. The midfielder, who is treating an injury to the back of his thigh, did separate activities, as did the defender, who is recovering from a bout of labyrinthitis.

The list of players who did not take part in the collective session also included Gabriel Paulista and Raniele. Both received their third yellow card in the previous round and are suspended for the next Brazilian Championship match. For that reason, they followed a different schedule on Thursday.

Corinthians will use the next few days to try to bounce back in the Brasileirão. The team heads into its next match under pressure after suffering three straight defeats in the competition.

With 32 points, Timão currently sits in 10th place in the table. The chance to end the losing streak will come on Sunday at 7:30 p.m. against Chapecoense. The match is scheduled for Neo Química Arena, where Corinthians will try to get back to winning ways in the Brazilian Championship and improve their position in the standings.
