João Simões injury revealed: how long Sporting could be without him | OneFootball

Last Thursday, November 13, João Simões was released from the under-21 team, due to a left foot injury, an area where he had already expressed complaints in the matches against Juventus and Santa Clara, bringing the number of injured Sporting players to six.

However, the newspaper Record reveals that the young midfielder's injury is not expected to be serious, but the 18-year-old player will still be reassessed upon returning to the Cristiano Ronaldo Academy. Furthermore, even if the situation does not worry the team, the 'number 52' is at risk for the Portuguese Cup match against Marinhense.

It is worth remembering that Rui Borges had already commented on this discomfort at the end of Sporting's match in Turin: "João Simões was in doubt until the start of the game, he had a minor setback in training on his left foot. But he felt good today. He played a great game."

The green and white team will return to the field only on Saturday, November 22, against Marinhense. The match, counting for the fourth round of the Portuguese Cup, against the team led by Rui Sacramento, will be played at 6:00 PM in Alvalade.
