Depleted Santos finish prep for Remo clash; likely line-up | OneFootball

Santos returned to training on Wednesday afternoon and wrapped up preparations for the clash against Remo in the ninth round of the Brasileirão. The team from the coast had two new absences on the injury list. Although Gabigol has begun his physical transition, the forward will not face Remo, nor will Gabriel Menino, who left training injured.

Gabriel Menino took to the field and trained with the ball, but felt pain in the back of his right thigh and, after the injury was confirmed, immediately began treatment in physiotherapy. Gabigol, although he had already run on the field in the last training session, only began his physical transition on Wednesday and therefore will also not play against Remo.

The pair join two other absences. Left back Vinícius Lira (torn ACL in his left knee) and right back Mayke (use of corticosteroid medication) will also not play against Remo.

What about training?

Apart from the absentees, the Santos squad trained normally. After the warm-up, the players carried out a tactical session, following Cuca’s plan.

Given the absences, Cuca is likely to field: Gabriel Brazão; Igor Vinícius, Lucas Veríssimo, Luan Peres and Escobar; Oliva, Gustavo Henrique and Neymar; Rony, Thaciano (Barreal) and Moisés.
