Santos released, through its social media, the squad list selected by coach Juan Pablo Vojvoda for the match against Flamengo. Neymar, the star of Peixe, is back in the squad after missing the team in the classic against Palmeiras last Thursday. The clash between Alvinegro Praiano and Rubro-Negro takes place this Sunday, at 4pm (Brasília time), at Maracanã.

Besides Neymar, Santos also has the important returns of defender Luan Peres and forward Bilal Brahimi. The defender missed the classic against Palmeiras because he was suspended due to yellow cards. The Algerian forward was not included by Vojvoda's choice.
