Lucas Moura hails Luiz Gustavo’s return to São Paulo training | OneFootball

The midfielder Luiz Gustavo has been cleared by the medical department of São Paulo and will return to training without restrictions after recovering from a pulmonary thromboembolism. The player has been under treatment since April, when he started anticoagulant medication.

On social media, the midfielder Lucas Moura celebrated his teammate's return:

Long absence

Luiz Gustavo's last match was on April 2, against Talleres, in Córdoba, for the group stage of the Copa Libertadores. He only played two games in the 2025 season.

The return of the midfielder is considered a significant boost for coach Hernán Crespo, who gains another option for the rest of the season. When Luiz Gustavo is fit, there is a chance the athlete could be used as a center-back in the 3-5-2 formation.
