Benfica take note: Bremer ruled out for Champions League rivals | OneFootball

Bremer is the latest casualty for Juventus. According to gathered information, the Brazilian international has once again reported complaints and will be forced to stop for some time. As such, the Bianconeri player is at risk for the upcoming Champions League matches, including the game against Benfica.

As reported by the newspaper A Bola this Monday, the Bianconeri athlete is back in the infirmary, precisely one month after returning from a serious injury suffered in October 2024. After overcoming a rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee, which kept him off the pitch for about 300 days, Bremer had already played five matches this season.

Now, misfortune has struck again for the Juventus center-back, who will have to undergo another surgery. In a statement, Juventus revealed the player's medical status: “This morning, in Lyon, Gleison Bremer underwent a medical consultation with Dr. Sonnery-Cottet, who diagnosed a tear in the medial meniscus of the left knee. In the coming hours, the player will undergo a selective meniscectomy by arthroscopy.”

It is also worth remembering that due to Bremer's injury, which practically kept him out of competition last season, the Vecchia Signora was forced to go to the market to find a solution. For a long time, the Turin club insisted on signing António Silva, but Benfica was always uncompromising regarding the player's departure.

The match between the Italians and the Eagles is scheduled only for the beginning of 2026, more precisely on January 21, as part of the 7th round of the Champions League league phase. Before that, Benfica will first face Newcastle next Tuesday, October 21, at a time when the Club of Light returns to training.
