Renê's ankle pain returns, no training, doubt for Fluminense after break | OneFootball

Left-back expected to miss the team’s match against Coritiba and will be reassessed for the upcoming games

Left-back Renê did not take part in Fluminense’s training session this Thursday (01) due to pain in his left ankle. Because of the physical issue, the defender is expected to miss the team’s match against Coritiba, when the Brazilian Championship resumes, and is now a doubt for the following fixtures against Flamengo and Palmeiras, the latter being the first leg of the Copa Libertadores semifinal. The information was published by ge.

The player had already reported discomfort in the same area at the end of the match against Corinthians, Fluminense’s last game before the FIFA international break.

After an initial recovery period, the player returned to training when the squad resumed activities, but felt pain in the area again during the sessions. Although the coaching staff are treating the situation as normal wear and tear from the season, the medical department will monitor the player daily without making a fuss ahead of the decisive matches.

With the absence of the No. 6, Guilherme Arana is expected to get another opportunity and take over as the starting left-back. Signed at the start of the season as an undisputed starter, the No. 13 ended up losing ground in the position to Renê over the course of the matches and now has the chance to regain a regular place in the starting eleven.
