Palmeiras: Paulinho reveals minutes for Abel after World Cup | OneFootball

Forward Paulinho has been recovering after a second surgery due to an injury to the tibia in his right leg. Palmeiras’ No. 10 earned more minutes on the pitch before the break for the World Cup and followed a special plan during the period.

Paulinho reveals recovery details at Palmeiras

In an interview with “Palmeiras Cast,” the player revealed details about how many minutes he may be available to Abel Ferreira when competitions resume.

“We worked during this period precisely for that — to increase the workload. But of course, it’s not going to be crazy. We’ll always have moments to choose the best matches for me to start, to play 60, 70 minutes. The coach will see. Where I fit in, where he sees I need to play. But now, when we return, I’ll be fit for more than 45 minutes,” he said.

No. 10 out for the return

Paulinho will miss Palmeiras’ return in the Brazilian Championship. The forward was suspended by the STJD during the World Cup break because of the gesture he made after scoring Verdão’s third goal against Flamengo.

In addition to the No. 10, Allan (suspended) and Flaco López (Argentina national team) will also be unavailable for Alviverde against Coritiba next Wednesday (22).
