Update on Pedro Gonçalves injury ahead of Bayern Munich v Sporting 👀 | OneFootball

Pedro Gonçalves is fully recovered from the injury that prevented him from contributing to the Sporting team for almost a month. Thus, the player has no minute restrictions for the next match of the Lions against Bayern Munich in the Champions League.

Sporting will visit Bayern Munich next Tuesday, December 9th, in the sixth round of the Champions League. In a match of maximum demand, Rui Borges already knows he can count on Pedro Gonçalves again, without having to think about any minute restrictions for the green and white winger, who is fully recovered from the injury he sustained on November 8th against Santa Clara.

The information is reported by the newspaper A Bola. After that match in the Azores, Pedro Gonçalves was forced to miss several games, including the national team's training camp. He returned against Estrela da Amadora, coming off the bench. Against Benfica, at the Estádio da Luz, he returned to the starting lineup, scoring a goal for the Sporting winger - who was substituted in the 60th minute.

Against Bayern Munich, Rui Borges will not be obliged to take off the winger, who has been of crucial importance in Sporting's season: Pedro Gonçalves is having his most productive season in terms of goal contributions so far, even after being sidelined due to injury.

After 19 matches, Pedro Gonçalves has 16 goal contributions - 10 goals scored and six assists made. These numbers are career highs for the green and white winger at this point in the season. Not even in 2020/21, when he was the top scorer of the championship, did he have such a positive record after the same number of games (at that time, he had 15 goal contributions).
