Wendell makes progress, joins part of São Paulo squad training | OneFootball

This Wednesday, at SuperCT, São Paulo continued their preparation for the match against Cruzeiro, for the 22nd round of the Brazilian Championship. The session was marked by the participation of left-back Wendell.

Recovering from a left hamstring injury, the player participated in part of the training with the rest of the group. Last Tuesday, Wendell had already started transitioning with the club's physical preparation team.

The squad began the session with strength exercises inside the training center. Afterwards, the players moved to the field and, under the guidance of Hernán Crespo's coaching staff, performed technical drills followed by a series of small-sided games.

The Tricolor will still conduct two more training sessions at SuperCT before the delegation travels to Belo Horizonte on Friday night.

Among the injured players, defender Robert Arboleda (left rectus femoris muscle) continued his physical transition. Midfielder Hugo and forward Calleri, recovering after anterior cruciate ligament surgeries on their knees, did exercises with the club's physiotherapy team and on the field.

Finally, forward André Silva, who was diagnosed with a posterior cruciate ligament injury and a sprain in the anterior cruciate ligament of his right knee last Monday, is still under evaluation to determine the future of his treatment.

The match between São Paulo and Cruzeiro takes place this Saturday, at 9 PM (Brasília time), at Mineirão. The Tricolor is in 7th place, with 32 points. On the other hand, Raposa is in 3rd place, with 41 points.
