Rui Borges handed 11 boosts in Sporting training session | OneFootball

Rui Borges received 11 'reinforcements' in the latest training session of Sporting, conducted by the Portuguese coach on the morning of Thursday, November 20th. This includes the vast majority of the green and white internationals, who have already returned to the Cristiano Ronaldo Academy.

After several days without a large part of the main squad, Rui Borges once again had 11 of the players who left Sporting during the FIFA International break under his command. The only exceptions are Maxi Araújo and Luis Suárez, who will only arrive in Portugal in the early hours of the morning.

Thus, the following players returned to train at the Sporting Academy this Thursday: goalkeeper Rui Silva (Portugal AA), right-backs Fresneda (Spain U-21) and Vagiannidis (Greece), center-backs Diomande (Ivory Coast) and Gonçalo Inácio (Portugal AA), midfielders Hjulmand (Denmark) and Kochorashvili (Georgia), creative players Geny Catamo (Mozambique), Trincão (Portugal AA) and Quenda (Portugal U-21), along with striker Rodrigo Ribeiro (Portugal U-20).

This time, Sporting did not provide any information about the young players who may or may not have been called to the main team's training. Regarding the injured players, the same six names remain under the care of the Lions' Performance Unit - they are Nuno Santos, Daniel Bragança, Fotis Ioannidis, João Simões, Zeno Debast, and Pedro Gonçalves.

Except for the injured players, Sporting has only one unavailable player for the next match: Maxi Araújo, who received a red card in the last league match. On the morning of the next Friday, Rui Borges will conduct the final training session before the match against Marinhense, for the Portuguese Cup. Then, in the early afternoon, the coach will participate in the pre-match press conference.
