Weverton fractured his hand on October 17th, and Palmeiras hoped for his return before the end of the season. However, the return will not be possible, and Carlos Miguel will replace him in the Libertadores final against Flamengo on November 29th.

— Weverton broke his hand and is a goalkeeper. He is out of the final. Weverton will return next year. Weverton deserves all the respect in the world, he makes a huge difference, especially with his footwork -, highlighted journalist Paulo Vinicius Coelho, adding that:

— But he will have to return, undergo physiotherapy, and take care of his hand. The starter in the final is Carlos Miguel. And he is gaining confidence -, stated PVC, on ‘De Primeira’, from Canal UOL.
