Flamengo fans can now celebrate the striker's return Cebolinha to training should take place next Friday (12). Away since the game against Bahia, where he played for just 45 minutes, the DM's prediction is that the player will be included again for the game against Criciúma, on Saturday (20). The information comes from journalist Venê Casagrande.

The athlete, who was undergoing treatment and had already been absent from the team in the game against Athletico-PR, went to the game and felt new discomfort against Bahia, in the 10th round . This time, with a confirmed hip injury. The attacker was expected to be out of action for at least four weeks and during that period, Cebolinha was out of 5 games.

They were:

Fluminense x Flamengo – 23/06

Juventude x Flamengo – 26/06

Flamengo x Cruzeiro – 30/06

Atlético-MG x Flamengo – 03/07< /p>

Flamengo x Cuiabá – 06/07

For the next match against Fortaleza, the striker remains absent, further complicating the options of coach Rubro Negro, who also lost Bruno Henrique in the confrontation against Cuiabá. The number 27 shirt had been the main choice of the technical committee in the absence of Cebolinha.

With swelling in his right ankle, Bruno Henrique will not be available for the next round match, so the tendency is for Tite repeat the option used during the match against Cuiabá: Lorran enters and Gerson is moved to play wide on the left. With no expected return for the striker, the news of Cebolinha's likely return is a relief for the team, disfigured by so many absences.

Of course I have that desire, but I don't treat it as a requirement . I'm Flamengo's goalkeeper, I'm responsible for Flamengo. If the call-up comes, I'll welcome it," he added.
