Matheus Reis had to undergo another surgery on the anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee. This time, it was a revision procedure of the first operation. At just 18 years old, the youngster is undergoing the third ligament surgery on the same knee of his career. In 2024, the Xerém youngster tore the ligament in his left knee while still in the youth ranks, and in 2026 he underwent another operation after tearing the ligament while training with the club’s first-team squad. The news of the new surgery was reported by journalist Pedro Brandão, from Lance.

The player had even returned to ball work, but was still in the transition process during the long recovery period that comes with an ACL tear. Now, with the new surgery, Matheus Reis’ return timeline is expected to be extended.
