Gustavo Henrique back in training, Corinthians gear up for Brasileirão | OneFootball

Corinthians resumed activities on the morning of last Tuesday (15) at CT Dr. Joaquim Grava, after two days off granted to the squad. The main news was center-back Gustavo Henrique’s return to training with the group. The defender had been rested for the friendly against Cascavel, played last Sunday (12), due to workload management and discomfort in the hip area.

The schedule led by head coach Fernando Diniz was divided into two stages. In the first part of training, the players took part in a technical circuit made up of four stations, with passing, crossing, finishing, and two-on-two drills.

Next, the coaching staff held a tactical activity on a reduced-size field, bringing together two teams in a ten-versus-ten session. During training, Diniz constantly instructed the players on positioning, with a focus on building out from the back under pressure, high pressing, and immediate reactions after losing possession.

Gustavo Henrique took part in the activities as normal and was also seen in aerial-ball drills, signaling progress after the period in which he had been sidelined from on-field work.

The Corinthians squad continues preparations for the resumption of the Brazilian Championship. The team’s next match will be against Remo at Neo Química Arena, as the national competition resumes.
