In addition to these athletes, Palmeiras has Paulinho (right leg surgery), Lucas Evangelista (physical transition), Felipe Anderson (left ankle sprain) and Figueiredo (physical transition) in the medical department.
Gustavo Gómez, Piquerez, Emiliano Martínez and Raphael Veiga were also absent from Palmeiras’ debut in Paulistão. The coaching staff preserved the athletes to manage energy at the start of the season.
Many things happened throughout the year, many things happened in specific games, but Palmeiras will always be open to good players, to those players who want to play for Palmeiras in those positions that Palmeiras understands they should adjust. But I’m very satisfied with the squad I currently have. What I want most is for injured players to recover as quickly as possible.
Abel Ferreira
While Abel doesn’t count on the DM players, boys from the base get chances. Defender Benedetti, midfielder Larson and striker Luighi, who scored the winning goal, started their debut at Paulistão as starters. Furthermore, Erick Belé received an opportunity from the bench. The coach from Palmeiras will give these boys minutes to show their service at the beginning of the year.
Even Bruno Rodrigues, who caused problems with the management during the holidays after playing in an amateur tournament, received minutes from Abel Ferreira. The striker was unable to take advantage of the 10 minutes he was on the field to justify the bet, and his future at Alviverde remains uncertain.
Palmeiras’ next match is on Wednesday, at 7:30 pm (Brasília time), against Santos, at Arena Barueri.
