Bruno Rodrigues back in Palmeiras squad after nearly two years | OneFootball

Bruno Rodrigues was named in the Palmeiras squad again after more than a year and a half this Saturday, for the clash with Internacional, at Allianz Parque, at 6:30 pm (Brasília time), for the 23rd round of the Brazilian Championship.

The last game the striker played for Verdão was in January 2024, against Inter de Limeira, for the Paulistão. Bruno Rodrigues has only played two matches for Palmeiras - the other was against Novorizontino, also for the State Championship that year.

Signed after a standout season for Cruzeiro, the player faced serious physical problems since he transferred to Palmeiras and spent almost two years recovering from knee injuries.

In 2024, Bruno Rodrigues underwent arthroscopy on his right knee after suffering an injury. When he was in the final phase of treatment, he ended up rupturing the patellar tendon of his left knee during a training match at the Football Academy, which forced him to undergo a new surgical procedure.

Revealed by Athletico-PR, Bruno Rodrigues has had spells at Paraná, Ponte Preta, São Paulo, Famalicão, from Portugal, and Cruzeiro. Since the beginning of 2024 at Palmeiras, the striker has played just over 100 minutes in the green and white shirt.
