Ousmane Diomande, Hidemasa Morita, and Maxi Araújo may be options for Rui Borges in the Famalicão - Sporting match.
Maxi Araújo and Ousmane Diomande are expected to return to the Sporting lineup for the clash against Famalicão, along with Hidemasa Morita. The trio was sidelined due to injury, but Rui Borges should be able to count on all three players next Saturday.
According to information reported by the newspaper Record, the trio may be available for the next match of the green and whites, although there might be some restrictions on minutes and physical exertion, as is the case with Maxi Araújo, who confirmed the scenario.
"On the 13th, I was told that I will be available to play, even if it's just for 30 minutes against Famalicão. And in the Champions League game on the 18th, I should be able to play 60 or 70 minutes, then be at 100 percent," assured the winger on September 5th.
As for Diomande and Morita, it is not yet known if they will be allowed to play. The Ivorian center-back has been out since the first round of the championship, against Casa Pia, while the Japanese player missed the Classic against Porto.
Sporting will return to the field next Saturday, September 13th, against Famalicão. The match against the team led by Hugo Oliveira, valid for the fifth round of the Liga Portugal Betclic, will be played in Minho and is scheduled to kick off at 8:30 PM.
