Merentiel and Cavani train together, could return to Boca squad | OneFootball

Boca returned to training after the victory against Newell’s and received a double dose of good news: Miguel Merentiel and Edinson Cavani trained alongside the group, which means they are starting to be considered as possible call-ups for the match against Vélez in Liniers.

Both forwards engaged in ball work and football movements, a positive sign amid a context marked by injuries. Merentiel seems to be in a better position, as he is nearing 21 days of recovery after the tear suffered in the friendly against Olimpia, while Cavani continues with a progressive fine-tuning and could, at best, be on the bench.

Meanwhile, Claudio Úbeda was pleased with Gonzalo Gelini's performance as a left winger, and everything indicates that the young player will be among the starting eleven again. The coach aims to maintain a solid base and recover key players to face a challenging visit against the Fortín.
