Úbeda welcomes back key player for Boca ahead of clásico vs San Lorenzo | OneFootball

Good news for the Boca world Boca. As the countdown continues for a new edition of the classic against San Lorenzo, the coaching staff received the news they had been waiting for: Alan Velasco is back. The talented attacker, who had been sticking to his recovery timeline, took the definitive step this Friday by participating in a formal football practice.

After the rout against Lanús and a day off, the Xeneize squad resumed training at the Ezeiza complex. While the starters did recovery work, Alan Velasco was the central figure in the football drill alongside those players who did not get minutes or had little playing time against Granate.

According to reports from the closed-door practice, the player looked very active, mobile, and showed no signs of physical discomfort, which immediately generated optimism among the medical and coaching staff. It’s worth remembering that the attacking midfielder had suffered a Grade 2 sprain of the medial collateral ligament in his left knee during the match against Riestra.

Will Alan Velasco make it to the Boca vs. San Lorenzo classic?

The big question now is whether he’ll be present at La Bombonera. Although the player has been out of official competition for some time, his recovery has been so positive that he could reappear on the squad list to face San Lorenzo next Wednesday, March 11.

If his call-up is confirmed, Velasco would start the match on the bench, presenting himself as a luxury option for the second half in a game that is always characterized by intensity and physical clashes.
