How was the training?

São Paulo had significant reinforcements during Wednesday's return. The main highlight was Arboleda. The defender, who was released by the management to resolve personal issues in Ecuador, returned to Brazil and participated in the activity normally at the SuperCT.

Another highlight was Bobadilla, who recovered from a right thigh injury. The Paraguayan also trained with his teammates during the return and is expected to be available for the Paulista quarterfinals.

New São Paulo signing, Cauly also trained on the SuperCT field. The attacking midfielder, who arrived on loan from Bahia, was officially presented earlier and then participated in his first full training session with the team. Once registered in the BID (Daily Information Bulletin), he will be eligible to debut.

The players started the day with a regenerative exercise in the gym. Later, the press had access to the team's warm-up on the field and the beginning of technical work during the return. The players were divided into small groups and engaged in quick passing drills under pressure.

André Silva, in a physical transition period after recovering from a right knee injury, participated in the initial activities alongside his teammates. He then continued with the physical preparation schedule.

Ferreira is absent

On the other hand, Ferreira was absent from Wednesday's training. The forward, who was rested from the last game due to an overload in the right adductor muscle, stayed indoors for strengthening exercises throughout the field activity.
