Thaciano out v Bragantino, Bontempo begins transition at Santos | OneFootball

Santos concluded their preparations this Saturday to face Red Bull Bragantino in the fifth round of the Paulista Championship at the Neo Química Arena. Coach Juan Pablo Vojvoda will not be able to count on Thaciano.

The attacking midfielder left the 1-1 draw with Corinthians last Thursday with pain in the posterior muscle of his right thigh. He underwent tests and was diagnosed with edema in the area. The player has already started treatment with the club's physiotherapy team.

Neymar (left knee injury), Gustavo Henrique (muscle injury in the right thigh adductor muscle), and Tiquinho Soares (edema in the left calf) remain out.

On the other hand, Vojvoda received good news during Saturday's training. Midfielder Gabriel Bontempo started his physical transition on the pitch at CT Rei Pelé. The "Menino da Vila" is recovering from an edema in the posterior of his left thigh.

A possible lineup for the match against Red Bull Bragantino includes: Gabriel Brazão; Igor Vinícius, Adonis Frías, Zé Ivaldo, and Vinicius Lira; Willian Arão, João Schmidt, Rollheiser, and Barreal; Lautaro and Gabigol.
