Neymar joins Santos training, boost expected v Mirassol | OneFootball

Santos held another training session on Thursday afternoon, continuing their preparations for the match against Mirassol. Forward Neymar Jr. took part in the activities led by coach Juan Pablo Vojvoda on the pitch at CT Rei Pelé.

Vojvoda has no absences for the clash in the interior of São Paulo. On the contrary, the coach is expected to have a reinforcement: midfielder Christian Oliva. The Uruguayan has been training with the squad since last week and has already been registered in the CBF's BID system.

Meanwhile, defender Lucas Veríssimo is still not expected to be available. A new signing for Peixe for the remainder of the season, the defender has not yet been able to leave Qatar due to the war in the Middle East.

Santos still has four more training sessions before the match against Mirassol. The duel, valid for the fifth round of the Brazilian Championship, is scheduled for next Tuesday at 9:30 p.m. (Brasília time), at Estádio Municipal José Maria de Campos Maia.

Peixe is coming off a victory over Vasco, which gave them some breathing room in the Brasileirão standings. The team has left the relegation zone and now occupies 13th place in Série A, with four points.
