Bruno Henrique set for Lanús return? Latest on the Flamengo forward | OneFootball

Bruno Henrique was absent in Flamengo’s last game, against Madureira

Suffering from pubic pain, Bruno Henrique was a missing piece for Flamengo last Sunday (22), in the semifinal of the Campeonato Carioca, against Madureira. The striker’s presence is still unconfirmed for Thursday (26), in the match against Lanús (ARG), for the Recopa Sudamericana.

According to a report by Coluna do Fla, Bruno Henrique responded well to Tuesday’s (24) training session. However, the number 27 is still being closely monitored by the medical department and the fitness staff to determine whether he will be fit to play.

Therefore, the final training session before the Recopa will be decisive in determining Bruno Henrique’s situation. The session is scheduled for this Wednesday (25), at CT Ninho do Urubu, starting at 3:30pm (Brasília time). Also racing against time to be fit are midfielder Jorginho and striker Wallace Yan.

WHAT ARE THE SITUATIONS OF JORGINHO AND WALLACE YAN?

Just like Bruno Henrique, Jorginho and Wallace Yan took part in a few minutes of training with the rest of the squad. The midfielder has not played since February 1st, in the Supercopa, due to a serious thigh muscle injury. Meanwhile, the Ninho’s homegrown talent has missed recent matches due to muscle pain.

SO, WHEN WILL THE RECOPA TAKE PLACE?

With hopes of having Bruno Henrique available, Flamengo will take the field at 9:30pm (Brasília time) on Thursday (26), at Maracanã with over 60,000 fans. The match will be broadcast on the ESPN subscription channel and also on Disney Premium, via streaming.

Since they lost in Argentina by 1-0, Flamengo needs to win by two goals to claim the championship for the second time. If they win by the minimum score, the champion will be decided in extra time or by a penalty shootout. Finally, Coluna do Fla will be present in full force at Maracanã and will bring all the details.
