Paulinho to be assessed, could make Palmeiras squad v Santos | OneFootball

Palmeiras face Santos this Saturday (2) at 6:30 p.m. (Brasília time) in the Brazilian Championship at Allianz Parque. The match will mark an important return to the pitch.

Paulinho’s return to Palmeiras

NOSSO PALESTRA has learned that forward Paulinho will undergo an evaluation with the Health and Performance Department and could be included in the squad for the clash against their rivals from Baixada Santista after nearly ten months recovering from a second surgery due to a stress fracture in the tibia of his right leg.

A decision is expected to be made just a few hours before the match at Allianz Parque this Saturday (2).

Eager but in agreement

 NP reported that, despite the eagerness for his return, the No. 10 is fully aligned with and supportive of the entire recovery process and plan laid out by the club.

Sources say the questions and doubts surrounding Paulinho’s injury do not reflect the complexity of the player’s condition, and that everything is being done properly so the forward can perform at a high level for the rest of his career.
