São Paulo is ready to begin its bid for a second CONMEBOL Sudamericana title

Tricolor is ready to begin its bid for a second CONMEBOL Sudamericana title! Champions of the continental tournament in 2012, São Paulo held their final session this Monday (6) at SuperCT before traveling to Montevideo, Uruguay, where they will face Boston River on Tuesday night (7) at 9:30 p.m. in the opening round of Group C.

Preparation to face the Uruguayans began with a video shown to the players by the coaching staff. The players then went through their warm-up before receiving tactical instructions from Roger Machado, who simulated match situations during training.

Center-back Alan Franco, recovered from pain in his right calf, trained normally with his teammates this morning and is available again after missing two matches.

Another new name on the squad list is 19-year-old Osorio, who has been called up to the senior team for the first time. Born in Uberaba, Minas Gerais, the youngster arrived at the CFA in Cotia in 2023 from Desportivo Brasil and played in the last three editions of the Copinha, winning the title in 2025 and finishing runner-up in 2026. He is also a two-time Under-20 Copa do Brasil champion (2024 and 2025) and the 2024 Under-19 Dallas Cup champion. Osorio started in all four rounds of this year’s Under-20 Brasileiro, scoring two goals.

Meanwhile, center-back Sabino and forward Luciano, both dealing with right calf muscle soreness, remain in São Paulo and will not travel with the squad, along with forward Calleri, who suffered a head collision during the match against Cruzeiro and received eight stitches above his eyebrow.

Finally, forward Lucca, who has pain in the front of his right thigh, will also remain in the São Paulo capital.
