Back from injury, Samuel Xavier could boost Fluminense against Vitória | OneFootball

Fluminense could gain a significant reinforcement this weekend. The right-back Samuel Xavier, recovered from an injury in the anterior muscle of the left thigh, has returned to normal training with the squad and may be listed for the clash against Vitória, this Saturday (20), for the Brazilian Championship, at Barradão.

The player had been missing from the team for several weeks, but showed improvement in treatment and even participated in a training match against Nitoriense, at CT Carlos Castilho, which raised expectations for his official return.

The Tricolor returns to the field this Saturday, against Vitória, at 4pm, at Barradão, looking to score important points to distance itself from the bottom and continue dreaming of bigger goals in the season.
