This Monday, São Paulo’s squad arrived in Uruguay for the clash against Boston River, which marks the team’s debut in the Copa Sudamericana. Tricolor will take the field next Tuesday at 9:30 p.m. (Brasília time) at the Centenario Stadium in Montevideo.
Rafael; Lucas Ramon, Rafael Tolói, Dória (Alan Franco), Enzo Díaz; Bobadilla, Marcos Antônio and Danielzinho (Cauly); Artur, Ferreirinha and André Silva Head coach: Roger Machado
Arboleda was supposed to report at 12 p.m. (Brasília time) last Saturday at SuperCT for São Paulo’s pre-match camp before facing Cruzeiro, but he did not do so and was left out of the squad list for the Brazilian Championship match.
Internally, São Paulo heard that Arboleda had traveled to Ecuador in a hurry during the early hours of the morning. The club, however, had no official confirmation about the player’s whereabouts, as it tried to contact him and received no response. As a result, the center back is expected to be unavailable for Roger Machado.
São Paulo make their Sudamericana debut after a good result in the Brazilian Championship: a 4-1 thrashing of Cruzeiro last Saturday. Roger Machado will also have Alan Franco back for the match. However, he will be without Luciano, Sabino, Calleri and Lucca against the Uruguayans.
