Right after the play that resulted in Corinthians’ equalizing goal to make it 1-1 against Flamengo on Sunday night (22), forward Memphis Depay requested a substitution after a collision with Flamengo defender Vitão. The collision happened during the same play in which the Dutchman delivered a trivela pass to Matheus Bidu, who then assisted Yuri Alberto to find the back of the net and level the score still in the first half.
Memphis left the pitch holding the front of his right thigh and went straight to the locker rooms at Neo Química Arena, visibly irritated after asking to be substituted. The number 10 was replaced by Argentine midfielder Rodrigo Garro.

More details about the physical issue suffered by the forward should be known after the match, when the player will be re-evaluated by the medical department through tests.
It’s worth noting that Memphis Depay was called up to the Netherlands national team for this FIFA window and has matches scheduled against Norway this Friday (27), and against Ecuador on the 31st. Earlier this season, the forward had already missed games for Corinthians at the start of the year while recovering from a knee issue, an injury that had also occurred in the 2025 season.
