Palmeiras return after break, Vitor Roque misses training | OneFootball

Palmeiras returned to training this Wednesday (25) after three days off due to the FIFA international break. Verdão will face Grêmio on April 2, when the Brazilian Championship resumes.

Absences from training

In addition to the eight called up – Argentinians Giay and Flaco López, Uruguayans Emiliano Martínez and Piquerez, Paraguayans Gustavo Gómez, Mauricio and Ramón Sosa, and Colombian Jhon Arias – striker Vitor Roque did not take part in the activities and followed an individualized program indoors at the center of excellence.

Abel Ferreira did not oversee the session because he was traveling to Portugal and is expected back at the Football Academy in the coming days.

Marlon highlights partnership at Palmeiras

Signed in 2026, defensive midfielder Marlon Freitas highlighted his start at Palmeiras and his partnership with Andreas Pereira.

– Starting the year well is important. As I’ve said a few times, everyone welcomed me very well and that was very important for my adaptation. I’m very happy to win my first title right in the first competition, that’s something very important. And now it’s about continuing to pay the price, continuing to be consistent. The Brazilian Championship demands that. We’ll also begin April with the Copa do Brasil, there will be knockout matches and we need to stay focused – he said.

– It’s very good to talk about Andreas, he’s a phenomenal player, and we understand each other well. Since my arrival here at Palmeiras, we’ve had that connection and friendship. It’s very important, not just Andreas, but Evangelista as well, who was the first to message me wishing me welcome. We have a very strong friendship off the pitch and we’re able to bring that onto the pitch. Andreas is a great player, my intention is to help, and I’m happy to be able to help him have great matches. He’s on a very good run of assists and goals, and the most important thing is the collective, for Palmeiras to come out on top – he added.
