Sporting returns to competition after the international break with an away match against Famalicão. Ousmane Diomande, Hidemasa Morita, and Maxi Araújo are expected, according to all indications, to be available again for Rui Borges, after a period out due to injury.
According to information reported by the newspaper Record, the trio may already be used in the next match for the green and whites, although there may be some restrictions on minutes and physical effort, as is the case with Maxi Araújo, who confirmed this scenario.
"On the 13th, I was already told that I will be available to play, even if it’s only for 30 minutes against Famalicão. And in the Champions League match on the 18th, I should be able to play 60 or 70 minutes, and then I’ll be at 100 percent," guaranteed the winger on September 5th.
As for Diomande and Morita, it is still not known whether they will be cleared to play. The Ivorian center-back has been out since the first matchday of the league, against Casa Pia, while the Japanese player missed the Classic against Porto.
Sporting will be back on the pitch next Saturday, September 13th, against Famalicão. The match against the team led by Hugo Oliveira, valid for the fifth round of the Liga Portugal Betclic, will be played in Minho and is scheduled to kick off at 8:30 p.m.
