Sporting trio return to training, Rui Borges brings major updates | OneFootball

Rui Silva, Ousmane Diomande, and Geny Catamo trained in a limited capacity and took a decisive step towards being available for the next match. Sporting’s starters have been sidelined due to physical issues, but they bring good news to Rui Borges.

The Ivorian center-back has been dealing with a muscle injury in his right thigh, while the Mozambican player also had muscular problems. Meanwhile, Rui Silva was suffering from a contusion on his left thumb, but has already put on his gloves during this training session.

Another highlight of the morning session was the call-up of two young players to the main squad: Samuel Justo and Mauro Couto. These two have usually featured for the B team, but today they were under the coach’s watchful eye in the main squad.

The main squad of the Alvalade club will return to work this Friday, September 25th, for another training session at the Cristiano Ronaldo Academy, once again behind closed doors. At 12:30 pm, Rui Borges will hold the pre-match press conference for the seventh round.

Sporting will be back on the pitch next Saturday, September 27th, against Estoril, in a match for the seventh round of Liga Portugal Betclic. The game against the team led by Ian Cathro will be played at 8:30 pm at the Estádio António Coimbra da Mota.
