With Neymar back, Santos name squad for match against Remo | OneFootball

Santos released the squad list for the match against Remo, scheduled for 7 p.m. (Brasília time) this Thursday at Vila Belmiro, for the ninth round of the Brazilian Championship.

Updates and absences

The list includes the return of Neymar. After missing the draw against Cruzeiro in the eighth round of the Brasileirão due to load management, the forward is available again. Midfielder Zé Rafael also returns to the squad list after recovering from an injury to the semimembranosus muscle in his right thigh.

However, Santos has some absences. Forward Gabigol, who has already started physical transition after a thigh edema, will still not be available. In addition to the forward, midfielder Gabriel Menino is also out of the match due to an injury to the back of his right thigh.

The duo joins two other absentees. Left back Vinícius Lira (tore the ACL in his left knee) and right back Mayke (use of corticosteroid medication) will also not play against Remo.
