Corinthians end training, eye Majestoso in 2025 Brasileirão | OneFootball

Corinthians wrapped up its first week of training during the FIFA break this Saturday. Next Thursday (20th), Timão will face São Paulo in a direct clash in the Brasileirão, as both teams are still dreaming of a spot in next year’s Libertadores. The match is scheduled for 7:30 PM (Brasília time) at Neo Química Arena, for the 34th round.

Before training, the coaching staff guided the players with video sessions. On the field, coach Dorival Júnior divided the team by positions: full-backs, midfielders, and forwards had a specific offensive movement drill, while the defenders worked on positioning in different game situations.

Corinthians is expected to gain two more reinforcements for the Majestoso, as in Friday’s training session, midfielder André Luiz and forward Vitinho completed their physical transition period. In addition, midfielders André Carrillo, José Martínez, and Charles are returning from suspension.

The medical department is still working to get Hugo Souza, who missed the last two games due to a right thigh injury, back at the coaching staff’s disposal.

On the other hand, midfielder Rodrigo Garro (suspended) and defensive midfielder Raniele (injured) are significant absences for the derby.
