Wendell leaves the stadium on crutches, fresh headache for São Paulo | OneFootball

Wendell has become the latest concern for São Paulo after leaving the Grêmio Arena on crutches following the 2-0 defeat in Porto Alegre, during the 28th round of the Brazilian Championship.

The tricolor left-back left the field at 11 minutes into the first half after feeling pain in his left foot, even needing to be carried off on a stretcher when he was substituted by Patryck Lanza.

Before immobilizing his left foot with an orthopedic boot and using crutches, Wendell managed to reach the Grêmio Arena locker room hopping on one leg, such was the pain when stepping on the ground.

It is worth noting that the starting player for the position, Enzo Díaz, was absent this Thursday due to hip pain. With Wendell's injury, São Paulo will only have Patryck Lanza as an option for the left-back position for the match against Mirassol next Sunday, away from home.

Wendell joins Cédric Soares (fracture in the right foot), Oscar (injury in the left calf), Luan (injury in the right adductor), Calleri (surgery on the left knee's cruciate ligament), André Silva (injury in the posterior cruciate ligament and strain in the anterior cruciate ligament of the right knee), Rafael Tolói (injury in the posterior region of the left thigh), and Ryan Francisco (rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament and meniscus injury in the left knee).
