Jorginho did not train with teammates in the last three days

Flamengo returns to the field this Sunday (31), at 4 PM (Brasília time), to face Grêmio at Maracanã, in a match for the 22nd round of the Brasileirão. However, the team led by Filipe Luís will have a significant absence for the match.

With pain in the posterior muscle of the left thigh, Jorginho underwent physiotherapy sessions on the morning of this Sunday (31), but still felt slight discomfort. As a precaution, the medical department ruled out the player's participation, and he was left out of the squad list.

DID JORGINHO TRAIN IN RECENT DAYS?

According to a report by Coluna do Fla, Jorginho missed the last three training sessions of Flamengo due to muscle discomfort. Thus, the player only did specific workouts at the CT Ninho do Urubu gym.

DOES FLAMENGO HAVE ANY OTHER ABSENCES?

Besides Jorginho, Flamengo will also be without Erick Pulgar and Alex Sandro. While the Chilean midfielder is recovering from surgery on the fifth metatarsal of his right foot, the left-back is treating a muscle injury in his left calf.

WHAT TIME DOES THE MATCH BETWEEN FLAMENGO AND GRÊMIO START?

Flamengo and Grêmio face off this Sunday (31), starting at 4 PM (Brasília time), for the 22nd round of the Brazilian Championship. The Rubro-Negro aims to maintain their good form and, above all, continue firmly in the isolated lead of the points-based competition.
