Gerson, Flamengo midfielder, felt intestinal pain and was absent from the Brazilian team's training this Saturday (16), in Salvador. The player, called up by coach Dorival Júnior, underwent medical evaluations and, according to initial information, does not present a worrying condition. However, the Flamengo is attentive to the situation of the athlete, who is still expected for the clash between Brazil and Uruguay, next Tuesday (19).


< p style="border: 1px solid rgb(197, 0, 24);">Gerson participated in the team's first activities in Salvador, but intestinal pain prevented him from continuing this Saturday's work. Despite this, the technical committee chose not to remove the player, who remains part of the group and under medical supervision. The objective is to guarantee his full recovery until the duel valid for the 2026 World Cup Qualifiers.


 FLAMENGO HAS ALERT ON 


Flamengo is closely following the evolution of Gerson's situation, especially because the player is a fundamental part of the scheme from coach Tite. Although the intestinal pains do not appear to be serious, the Red and Black board maintains contact with the Seleção's medical team to ensure that the midfielder returns in ideal conditions for the club's commitments.

BRAZIL X URUGUAY PREPARATION  


With the absence of Gerson In training, Dorival Júnior made adjustments to the team's midfield to face Uruguay. The coach is still waiting for the player's recovery, who should return to training on Sunday (17) or Monday (18). The expectation is that he will be 100% ready for the match, which is crucial for the Seleção's journey towards qualifying for the World Cup.

A Gerson's call-up is the result of his consistent performance at Flamengo. The midfielder has established himself as one of the leaders of the Red and Black squad and, in the Seleção, has shown his versatility. With important passages for the national team, the player is one of Dorival's bets to strengthen Brazil's midfield. His absence from training worries both Flamengo and the Seleção, given his strategic importance.
