Bruma continues to be a source of good news at Benfica. It has been determined that the Portuguese international, 31 years old, continues to progress well in the Eagles' training sessions, showing signs of recovering well from the Achilles tendon rupture he suffered in the pre-season.

According to the newspaper A Bola, in today's edition, January 12, the winger, signed from Braga, returned to training at the end of last week and since then, has responded well to his progress, which certainly makes José Mourinho very happy, two days before the Classic against Porto.

The same source explains that the number 27 has been training under José Mourinho's orders, almost less than six months after the serious injury he suffered. As observed, the athlete was seen performing several sprints on the field, indicating his physical condition.

Bruma is already seen on the field, not working with the team, but individually, at a funny pace and intensity,” José Mourinho revealed on December 27, when the footballer was not yet integrated into the Special One's training sessions.

The very positive progress of Bruma turns out to be very positive news for José Mourinho, at a time when the Special One remains impatient for the arrival of new reinforcements. Besides the number 27, the Portuguese coach hopes to soon count on the return of Dodi Lukebakio, recovering from ankle surgery.
