Setbacks for São Paulo: Cédric doubtful, Luan injured and out | OneFootball

If Tuesday (23) started with good news at São Paulo, with the progress of Lucas in the training at CT da Barra Funda, of course, the tricolor fan does not have a day of peace and also has new concerns.

The right-back Cédric, who was absent in the classic against Santos last Sunday (21), due to a virus, resumed his work on the tricolor field, but with reduced load. He has only one day, therefore, to prove himself fit for the Copa Libertadores duel, against LDU, at Morumbi, but he may become unavailable.

If he cannot have the Portuguese wing, Crespo will place Maílton in his place on the right, a reinforcement that showed personality in the last two games in which he played, for Libertadores and Brasileirão.

A certain loss that Tricolor gained for the upcoming matches is Luan. The midfielder, who left the classic at Vila Belmiro with pain in his right adductor, underwent an imaging exam at the club that diagnosed an injury in the area. The athlete has already started treatment at REFFIS Plus, and there is no forecast for his return.

Therefore, it opens up space for Luiz Gustavo, another midfielder who is returning after a long period away due to pulmonary thromboembolism, but is already training normally without restrictions with his São Paulo teammates since last Saturday (20).

Hernán Crespo and his commission led the penultimate training session before the decision on Tuesday, and they will finish the preparation on Wednesday afternoon (24), once again at CT da Barra Funda.
