Palmeiras step up preparations to face Bahia in the Campeonato Brasileiro

The Palmeiras continued their preparations on Friday afternoon (26th) at the Football Academy for the match against Bahia, on Sunday (28th), at 4 PM, at Arena Fonte Nova, in Salvador (BA), for the 25th round of the Brazilian Championship – the Verdão, with fewer games played, is in third place in the national tournament with 49 points.

After physical activation in the center of excellence, the players went to the field and performed technical activities in reduced dimensions with specific objectives. The starters from the last match left earlier, and defender Gustavo Gómez, with swelling in the eye area, trained separately on the field.

Speak, Flaco

The top scorer for the season with 19 goals (the two most recent in the 3-1 victory over River Plate-ARG last Wednesday, when he also became the top scorer of the current CONMEBOL Libertadores with seven goals), forward Flaco López renewed his contract until December 2029 and spoke with TV Palmeiras.

“This moment is very special for me, seeing all the support that Palmeiras gives me is truly a luxury. When I arrived, at the beginning, things maybe didn’t happen as everyone wished, but it’s part of life, we managed to change, we managed to improve a lot in the way we wanted, and today, another recognition from Palmeiras with the contract renewal. I am extremely grateful for all the recognition that Palmeiras has given me, it made me a national team player, and that is the pinnacle of football for me. So, just words of gratitude for Palmeiras and, God willing, we will continue working hard to help Sociedade Esportiva Palmeiras more and more,”

Jersey number 42 joined the Greatest Champion of Brazil in mid-2022 after gaining prominence at Lanus-ARG. Since then, he has played 164 matches, provided 11 assists, scored 51 goals, won two Brazilian championships (2022 and 2023), two Paulista championships (2023 and 2024), and a Brazilian Super Cup (2023).
