Santos miss trio in rain, Vojvoda plans changes for Corinthians clash | OneFootball

Santos held another training session at CT Rei Pelé this Friday. Coach Juan Pablo Vojvoda led a physical and technical session in the morning that featured some absences. Peixe is preparing for the derby against Corinthians, in the 28th round of the Brazilian Championship, after the FIFA date.

Mayke, who is recovering from inflammation in his right knee, Rollheiser and Lautaro Díaz did not take the field during the portion of training open to the press. The trio, however, is not a concern for Vojvoda and will train normally in the second session of the day.

How was training?

In the rain, Santos began the session with physical work. Then, the squad gathered on the pitch and, in pairs, the players worked on ball recovery, finishing, and transition in a reduced space. After that, Vojvoda’s staff split the group in two and worked on defensive and offensive aspects, with a focus on finishing.

Vojvoda should have updates for the derby

Victor Hugo, advancing in his physical transition, should be available to the coach for the derby. The midfielder is still training separately and should only train with the squad starting Monday, according to Gazeta Esportiva. Mayke should also be available to Vojvoda.

Santos absences

Neymar remains out

The attacking midfielder is recovering from an injury to the right thigh’s rectus femoris muscle. The No. 10 is doing only indoor training at CT Rei Pelé and has stepped up his recovery with workouts at his home gym.

In addition to Neymar, coach Vojvoda has two more confirmed absences for the game: Alexis Duarte and Tiquinho Soares.

With the Paraguayan national team, Alexis Duarte has been unavailable for Santos. The center-back will represent his country in two friendlies during the FIFA window and therefore will not be available against Timão. Paraguay faces South Korea on the 14th, the eve of the derby, at 8 a.m., in Seoul.

Vojvoda will also be without Tiquinho Soares against Corinthians. The forward received his third yellow card against Ceará and will serve an automatic suspension.

Santos trains again on Friday afternoon. After that, the team has Saturday off and returns to work on Sunday morning at CT Rei Pelé.
