Corinthians update: Breno Bidon and André sidelined with injuries | OneFootball

According to Globo.com, Corinthians have suffered two further injury setbacks, with Breno Bidon diagnosed with a hamstring strain and André with ligament damage in his left ankle.

Both started the defeat to Palmeiras in the seventh round of the Campeonato Paulista on Sunday. André went off at half-time, while Bidon felt pain earlier but departed in the 42nd minute of the second half.

André also sustained a ligament injury last year, but to his right ankle, which kept him out for a month.

The club announced their absences minutes before facing Red Bull Bragantino in the third round of the Campeonato Brasileiro on Thursday, without specifying a return timeframe.

The midfielders join forward Kaio César in the treatment room. He was diagnosed with a right hamstring injury after being forced off on 14 minutes in the 3-0 win over Capivariano on 5 February.

Against Bragantino, Corinthians had André Carrillo available again after he missed the derby due to discomfort in his right leg, and Rodrigo Garro started.

Head coach Dorival Júnior named starters Hugo Souza, Matheuzinho, Gabriel Paulista, Gustavo Henrique, Matheus Bidu, Raniele, Carrillo, Matheus Pereira, Rodrigo Garro, Memphis Depay and Yuri Alberto.
