João Simões should be fit for Sporting - Club Brugge. The young midfielder is expected by Rui Borges at training this Monday, November 24, which marks the return of the green and whites to work as they prepare for the Champions League clash.

All indications are that the 'number 52' of the green and whites is fit to play against Club Brugge and should even start in midfield for Rui Borges’ team, alongside Morten Hjulmand. For now, the young midfielder is expected to return to training after a break, being the only player in the medical department recovering in time to face the Belgians.

It’s worth remembering that João Simões had been dealing with a left foot injury, which even affected his performances against Juventus and Santa Clara. The player ended up being released from the Under-21 National Team to recover at Sporting.

The green and white emblem will return to the pitch next Wednesday, November 26, against Club Brugge. The match, counting for the fifth round of the Champions League, against the team led by Nicky Hayen, will be played at the Estádio de Alvalade at 8:00 pm.
