Fluminense hopeful Ganso will be fit for Copa do Brasil clash with Flamengo | OneFootball

Fluminense is working with the expectation of having PH Ganso back for the derby against Flamengo, which takes place after the FIFA break. Even though he missed the game against Cruzeiro on Sunday (9), the midfielder has recovered from a muscle injury and returned to training with the rest of the squad last week.

The last time the player was on the field was in the defeat to Corinthians on September 13, when he had to be substituted due to discomfort in his calf. Afterwards, the athlete underwent tests and a grade 2 injury to the area was confirmed.

In the post-match press conference at Mineirão, coach Luis Zubeldía spoke about the possibility of having the midfielder available for the first time since taking charge.

With the expectation of Ganso’s return, Fluminense faces Flamengo on November 19, Wednesday, at 9:30 p.m., at Maracanã, for the 34th round of the Brazilian Championship.
