While the transfer window continues without new signings, Flamengo counts on the return of players who participated in the Copa América as the main reinforcements for the second half of the year. Last Wednesday, Uruguayans Arrascaeta, De la Cruz, Viña and Varela performed again at Urubu's Nest, bringing back a new lease of life to the cast.


Viña, who faced problems with muscle fatigue during the tournament in the United States, he is cleared and ready to be selected for the game against Criciúma this Saturday, at 4pm (Brasília time), at Mané Garrincha. In addition to him, Cebolinha will also be available, having recovered from a hip injury that sidelined him.


FLAMENGO COMES WITH ONLY TWO ABSENCES 


However, not everything is good news for the technician Tite. The coach will have two important absences for the match. Allan is suspended for his third yellow card, while Bruno Henrique is still recovering from a right ankle sprain. The attacker, a key player in Tite's tactical scheme, continues to have a swollen area and has not started work on the field, leaving a gap in the red and black attack.

The Uruguayan players returned to Ninho do Urubu after participating in the Copa América. Arrascaeta, De la Cruz, Viña and Varela were the last to join the Flamengo squad, being received with enthusiasm by the team and technical committee. The presence of these players is seen as a crucial reinforcement for the team, which seeks to maintain high performance in national and international competitions.

Midfielder Erick Pulgar took an important step towards returning to play for Flamengo . Tests carried out this Friday (12) showed the consolidation of the fracture in the fifth metatarsal of the right foot , allowing the player to be released to begin activities on the pitch.


With medical clearance, Pulgar now begins the transition to field work . The Chilean will continue physical therapy to resume running, progress to ball-handling activities, and then enter the physical conditioning phase, the final phase before returning to official matches.


The midfielder hasn't played since the Club World Cup in June. After surgery on July 3, Pulgar spent some time in Chile and then returned to Ninho do Urubu to continue his treatment. Until then, he had been working out in the training center's indoor area.


INJURY AGAINST BAYERN

The injury occurred during the Club World Cup Round of 16 match against Bayern Munich. The midfielder had already suffered the same type of fracture in his first months at the club, when it took him about 60 days to return to the squad.


RETURN TO GAMES

Although coach Filipe Luís stated that he was counting on the Chilean for the Libertadores quarterfinals, it is unlikely that he will be on the field for the matches against Estudiantes , scheduled for September 18 and 25. Pulgar is expected to be available later in the season, reinforcing Flamengo's role in the ongoing competitions.
