Luciano suffers thigh strain, São Paulo’s first Reffis case this season | OneFootball

Still without any records of new patients this season, the medical department of São Paulo might lose its 'invincibility'.

As revealed by coach Hernán Crespo in his press conference, forward Luciano left the draw with Santos in last Wednesday's (4) classic at Vila Belmiro, during the Brazilian Championship, with pain in the back of his right thigh.

The forward was evaluated on the morning of Thursday (5) at Reffis, during the team's reassembly after the match, and was diagnosed with muscle overload in the area.

Luciano was spared from training, stayed inside the training center for treatment, and will be evaluated over the coming days.

Given the situation and the short time available, everything suggests that the number 10 will be absent for the match against Primavera, at 8:30 PM (Brasília time) this Saturday (7), at Morumbi, for the Paulista Championship.

Luciano started the classic on the bench and came on during the second half. Without him, the tendency is for São Paulo's attack to be maintained with the duo Tapia and Calleri, formed for the first time at the club precisely at Vila Belmiro.
