More bad news for Rui Borges as Sporting return to training | OneFootball

Morten Hjulmand is still not training with the Sporting squad and remains doubtful for the match against Gil Vicente, in the final round of the Liga Portugal Betclic. With two days to go before the game at Alvalade, the Lions' captain is still recovering from a sprain in his right ankle.

The Danish midfielder trained on the pitch this Thursday, but only alongside Fotis Ioannidis and Georgios Vagiannidis, both of whom are also under the care of the medical department. At Alvalade, there is still caution regarding the use of the No. 42 shirt, at a time when the priority is also to ensure his full recovery for the Portuguese Cup final against Torreense.

Fotis Ioannidis, 26, is still recovering from a ligament injury in his right knee, while Vagiannidis is dealing with muscle pain in his left leg. The availability of both players for the clash against Gil Vicente remains uncertain.

Besides these cases, Iván Fresneda, João Simões and Nuno Santos were also absent from the training session. The first two will not play again this season, while the 'No. 11' is still at risk of missing the Portuguese Cup final due to a muscle problem.

The green-and-white squad return to training on the morning of Friday, May 15, in what will be the final session before the match and the pre-match press conference held by Rui Borges, scheduled for 12:30 pm.
