São Paulo return amid crisis and confirm Calleri injury | OneFootball

São Paulo’s squad returned from Chapecó hours after the 1-0 defeat to Chapecoense at Arena Condá and began a crisis-hit week with activities at the Barra Funda training center in a session on Monday afternoon (24). Before that, the squad and Rafinha had a meeting at the site with organized supporter groups.

The Tricolor side now turns its attention to the 25th round clash of the Brazilian Championship against Bragantino, which will be played on Saturday (29) from 8 p.m. (Brasília time) at Morumbi. The team has not won in its last ten Brasileirão matches.

Training

While the players who logged more minutes against Chapecoense did recovery work indoors at the training center, the rest trained on the pitch under the command of Dorival Júnior and his assistants.

After the warm-up, there was a passing drill followed by a small-sided game and a finishing exercise. The Tricolor will train again at the Barra Funda training center on Tuesday morning (25).

Calleri begins treatment

Substituted in the first half of the match against Chapecoense with a sprained left ankle, striker Calleri began treatment at São Paulo’s training center. The club did not provide any timetable for the Argentine’s return.

Center-back Arboleda (swelling in the left adductor), defensive midfielder Bobadilla (pain in the right knee), attacking midfielder Lucas (surgery on the right Achilles tendon), and forwards Lucca (jaw fracture) and Victor Sá (traumatic sprain in the right ankle) continued with their recovery schedules.

There will now be four more days of work this week as they try to turn around the difficult situation in the Brasileirão and move a little further away from the relegation zone.
