Santos set for boosts for Copa Sul-Americana opener, see who | OneFootball

After the comeback loss to Flamengo this Sunday, Santos now turns its attention to its Copa Sudamericana debut against Deportivo Cuenca on Wednesday, a match in which Peixe should have reinforcements. Cuca revealed that Rony and Igor Vinícius, both absent against the Rubro-Negro, traveled to Rio de Janeiro on Sunday night to join the squad heading to Ecuador.

“It will be a very demanding match. We have to think carefully about what to do to have the healthiest players possible. They will only perform well if they are ‘fresh.’ We’re going to use the squad, and today we had a pleasant surprise with Lautaro. He played well within what had been planned and scored a great goal. Rony and Igor Vinícius arrive later today and travel to Ecuador,” he said.

Rony should be available for the match, while the right-back will be re-evaluated by the medical staff to determine whether he will be fit to play.
