Four São Paulo players will sacrifice their own vacations to be in top playing condition at the start of the 2026 season.

Part of this information was confirmed by the club itself this Saturday (6), in the release of the latest health bulletin updating the status of athletes currently undergoing treatment at Reffis.

The report reveals that forwards Ryan Francisco and André Silva, as well as midfielder Luan, will remain in treatment in the medical department during this month of December.

Ryan underwent surgery to reconstruct the anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee, performed on July 30. The athlete has progressed in muscle strengthening and increased running volume, under the care of physiotherapy.

André Silva, meanwhile, continued treatment for a posterior cruciate ligament injury and a strain in the anterior cruciate ligament of his right knee, suffered on August 24. The player is progressing in load within the muscle strengthening program, developing changes of direction and high-intensity runs, accompanied by physiotherapy.

Luan, who underwent a procedure to remove calcification in the right adductor muscle on November 26, continues a rehabilitation program focused on symptom control.

AVANTE MEU TRICOLOR has learned that a fourth player has given up at least part of his vacation to continue treatment: Lucas. The attacking midfielder, after receiving medication in the painful area of his right knee, is also doing muscle strengthening and motor control work with physiotherapy.

Sources close to the number 7 told the report that he also decided to keep working physically during the rest period to start the year in top physical condition.

Another player expected to start next year in full condition is striker Calleri. The number 9, who has been taking part in all ball work with the other players, with gradually reduced restrictions, as well as following a physical enhancement program, will follow the same physical preparation schedule as the other players during the vacation period.

Two players will end the year with their situations undefined. Oscar, diagnosed with a vasovagal syncope, was at the Barra Funda training center last Thursday (5) and remains at home resting as per medical advice. There is a possibility he may decide to end his career.

Left-back Enzo Díaz remains in Argentina resting after undergoing herniorrhaphy to correct a hidden inguinal hernia on the left side. On loan from River Plate, his stay is not guaranteed.

One name that has left the injury list is striker Dinenno. Sidelined due to arthroscopy on his right knee, the player returned to normal training this week, but already has a deal with Deportivo Cali, from Colombia, and will not stay for 2026.

As AMT revealed, São Paulo’s professional squad will go on vacation starting this Monday (8). The players will return for pre-season, which will take place in Cotia, on January 2.
