Palmeiras training: Jefté picks up swelling, Vitor Roque nursing sprain | OneFootball

Palmeiras returned to training on Sunday morning at the Football Academy, just hours after their 1-0 victory over Portuguesa at Canindé, in the opening match of the Campeonato Paulista.

The players who played more than 45 minutes in the match followed a recovery work schedule in the weight room, recovery, and neuroscience rooms. The rest of the squad carried out a technical training session with positional exercises for building plays, passing options, and an activity on a reduced field simulating a game.

Problems at Palmeiras

Left-back Jefté, who was substituted at halftime against Lusa, underwent tests that showed no structural injury. The player presented with swelling in his right thigh.

Forward Vitor Roque, on the other hand, suffered a trauma during the training match with Desportivo Brasil last Wednesday, which resulted in a mild ankle sprain. Because of this, the number 9 has a controlled training load for the season and worked indoors at the training center.

Palmeiras returns to the field in the derby against Santos, on Wednesday at 7:30 p.m. (Brasília time), at Arena Barueri, for the second round of the Campeonato Paulista.
