Tricolor injury update: Lucas returns, Luiz Gustavo set to play | OneFootball

If São Paulo has already traveled to Ecuador, where the quarterfinal duel of the Copa Libertadores against LDU begins, some of the players, in physical recovery, worked at the Barra Funda CT this Wednesday (17). And the club has reported the medical situation of some of them.

In progress, the attacking midfielder Lucas ran on the pitch for the first time after undergoing arthroscopy to remove fibrosis in his right knee. On Monday (15), he did treadmill work.

The midfielder Luiz Gustavo, recovered from pulmonary thromboembolism, underwent a series of physical tests at REFFIS Plus with a view to resuming unrestricted training alongside the group, starting on Saturday.

The striker André Silva, recovering from injuries to his right knee, continued with muscle strengthening exercises with physiotherapy at the São Paulo CT gym.

Thus, those under the command of Hernán Crespo are expected to do just one activation session at the hotel, on the day of the first leg of the quarterfinals against LDU, at 7pm (Brasília time) this Thursday (18).
