Corinthians hold attacking drills as midfielder eyes season run-in | OneFootball

Corinthians continue to make the most of the break in the schedule due to the FIFA international window to step up their preparations for the rest of the season. On Friday morning (27), the squad held another training session at CT Dr. Joaquim Grava, with a special focus on improving the attacking sector.

The coaching staff began the day with a video session in the briefing room, where tactical concepts were presented to the players. After that, the group went through physical work in the gym before heading to the pitch, where they carried out warm-ups and ball drills.

On the field, training prioritized the creation of attacking plays. In one of the exercises, the players were divided into two teams for a drill involving alternating blocks: while one team kept possession and looked for attacking solutions, the other reacted in transition, simulating real match situations.

One of the standout players in the team’s attacking build-up, midfielder Breno Bidon spoke about the importance of the period without official matches for the team’s development. According to the number 7, the squad has been making good use of the training sessions to correct details and increase their attacking output.

“The preparation has been very good. We’re making the most of the FIFA window with good training sessions. That can only help us. We’ve been working on the attacking side of things. We need to keep working with our heads in the right place. Our team has huge potential. I believe that if we keep working like this, we’ll improve a lot,” he said.

With two goals scored this season, the 21-year-old midfielder also looked ahead to the challenges the club will face in 2026, including major competitions such as the Copa Libertadores and the Copa do Brasil.

“Of course we think about it. We know it will be a competition of a very high level. We’ll be back playing in the Libertadores and also in the Copa do Brasil, which, thank God, we managed to win. Our expectations are very good. We have to work hard and, who knows, maybe reach the finals and become champions again,” he added.

Throughout April, Corinthians will face an intense schedule, with nine matches in a span of 30 days. In the Brazilian Championship, the team will face Fluminense, Internacional, Palmeiras, Vitória and Vasco. In addition, they will take on Barra-SC in the Copa do Brasil and have continental clashes against Platense, Independiente Santa Fé and Peñarol in the Libertadores.

The squad returns to training on Sunday morning (29), once again at CT Dr. Joaquim Grava, continuing preparations for the marathon of matches.
