Piquerez back at Palmeiras, starts treatment after Uruguay injury | OneFootball

Left-back Joaquín Piquerez returned to Palmeiras this Sunday (29) after suffering a sprain in his right ankle during a friendly between Uruguay and England at Wembley, in England, last Thursday (26), and has already begun treatment at the club.

The player was evaluated by the Health and Performance Center and will still undergo additional tests in the coming days.

Preparation continues at the Football Academy

Under the command of coach Abel Ferreira, the squad trained on Sunday morning at the Football Academy.

The session included technical-tactical drills and specific movements for the attacking and defensive units, continuing preparations for the clash against Grêmio next Thursday (2) at 9:30 p.m. (Brasília time) at Arena Barueri, in the 9th round of the Brazilian Championship.

Vitor Roque remains out

Forward Vitor Roque also remains a concern. The player is still feeling pain in his ankle after suffering a knock in the semifinal of the Paulista Championship and, due to the accumulated fatigue from the state final, took part in indoor activities, following an individualized schedule at the club’s center of excellence.
