Rodinei joins first Santos training session before Atlético-MG quarter-final | OneFootball

According to Globo.com, right-back Rodinei was the main development at Santos training on Monday at CT Rei Pelé, taking part in his first session with his new team-mates.

The squad regrouped this morning after a 3-2 win over Internacional on Sunday at Beira-Rio in the 26th round of the Campeonato Brasileiro.

Players who started completed only recovery work, while the rest of the group trained on the pitch in a technical session.

Santos host Atlético-MG in the first leg of the Copa Sudamericana quarter-finals on Wednesday at 19:00, Brasília time, at Vila Belmiro. Cuca is expected to sketch a likely XI on Tuesday once the full group is available.

There is an expectation he may have centre-back Lucas Veríssimo back after right-ankle pain kept him out against Internacional. A probable Santos XI is Gabriel Brazão, Willian Arão (Lucas Veríssimo), Luan Peres, Escobar, Gustavo Henrique, Christian Oliva, Gabriel Bontempo, Rollheiser, Caballero and Gabigol.

Forward Rony is unavailable, the number 11 is suspended after receiving a third yellow card in the 0-0 draw with Macará in Ecuador in the round of 16.
