Palmeiras draw up special plan for Paulinho during World Cup break | OneFootball

Forward Paulinho has been recovering after a second surgery due to an injury to the tibia in his right leg. The player, who scored the third goal against Flamengo, has been undergoing load management and increasing his minutes in matches since returning.

Palmeiras’ special plan

NOSSO PALESTRA has learned that Verdão’s Health and Performance Department is preparing a special physical conditioning plan for the No. 10 during the break for the World Cup.

The understanding is that Paulinho needs to maintain his full physical preparation with specific activities so as not to regress in his recovery. The staff’s goal is for the forward to be able to play more than 45 minutes after the return.

Controlled minutes

Since returning to the pitch in the match against Santos on May 2, the player has made six appearances. However, his minutes have been limited, with load management in training between matches.

Palmeiras does not want to risk Paulinho feeling any physical discomfort because of the long period of inactivity during the recovery from his second surgery.

NP has learned that the progress is viewed positively by the NSP, and the No. 10 has been feeling well after matches and with the daily increase in workload during activities.
