Vasco already knows exactly when they will be without Paulo Henrique. The right-back has been called up by Carlo Ancelotti for the Brazilian National Team. He will miss at least one crucial match in the final stretch of the championship.
The players' presentation is scheduled for next Monday, November 10th. Before that, Cruz-Maltino still has two important commitments. The team faces Botafogo and Juventude in the Brazilian Championship.
Paulo Henrique is already a confirmed absence against Botafogo. The classic takes place this Wednesday (5th). The reason, however, is an automatic suspension due to the third yellow card received against São Paulo.
Thus, the right-back is free to play over the weekend. He is expected to play the match against Juventude. This will be his last game before joining the Brazilian National Team in England.

The second friendly of the Brazilian National Team will be against Tunisia, on November 18th. Vasco has a match scheduled against Grêmio the very next day, the 19th. Therefore, the player's presence in this match is completely ruled out.
The right-back is only expected to return to the Gigante da Colina after this date. Puma Rodríguez is the immediate substitute for the position, that is, if he is not also called up to defend Uruguay, his country. Paulo Henrique was called up for the friendlies against Senegal (11/15) and Tunisia (11/18).
