Fluminense absentees for derby against Vasco: injury list 🏥 | OneFootball

Fluminense will have three absences for the derby against Vasco: midfielders Bernal and Nonato, and forward Matheus Reis. The teams will face each other this Wednesday at 9:30 PM at Maracanã, for the 7th round of the Brazilian Championship.

Of the injured players, Bernal is the closest to returning. The Uruguayan suffered a partial tear of the posterior cruciate ligament in his right knee during the match against Palmeiras on February 25. The expected recovery time is 30 days. If the timeline is correct, he will be back on the field later this month.

On the other hand, Matheus Reis is the most delicate case. The youngster suffered a sprain in his right knee during a training session two weeks ago and is sidelined for an indefinite period.

Meanwhile, Nonato will extend his stay in the medical department. The midfielder was close to recovering from another injury but got hurt again during a session at the Carlos Castilho Training Center last Tuesday: he twisted his right ankle.
