São Paulo update on Luciano after derby injury, details here | OneFootball

São Paulo has provided an update on forward Luciano, who left the Vila Belmiro pitch with pain in the back of his right thigh after the 1-1 draw with Santos last Wednesday, in the second round of the Brazilian Championship.

Luciano was evaluated at REFFIS Plus during the squad’s return to training on Thursday morning at SuperCT. The forward did not suffer an injury, but rather a muscle overload in the back of his right thigh.

As a result, the number 10 stayed inside the SuperCT for treatment.

It’s worth remembering that Luciano started the derby against Santos on the bench and was only brought on by the coaching staff in the 15th minute of the second half. The player left the field after the final whistle with his hand on the back of his right thigh.

São Paulo returns to the field this Saturday, when they face Primavera in the seventh round of the Paulista Championship. The match kicks off at 8:30 p.m. (Brasília time) at Morumbis stadium.

Given the busy run of games, there is a possibility that the coaching staff will rest some of the main players, precisely to prevent injuries as the season progresses.
