Raphael Nunes, under-20 goalkeeper for Flamengo, celebrates a major milestone in his career and personal life. Diagnosed with a malignant tumor in the testicle last year, the young athlete is 100% recovered and is already participating in training without restrictions from the medical department. The expectation is that Raphael will be involved in games again soon, and will finally be able to play his first minutes on the field after a long recovery period of ten months.

Raphael Nunes' trajectory during this period was a lot of determination and overcoming. After the diagnosis, he underwent three intensive months of chemotherapy, from October to December last year. This treatment was crucial for his recovery, allowing him to resume sporting activities in April this year, initially gradually.

FLAMENGO HAS A GOOD RETURN TO THE CLUB

Raphael began his return to training by doing separate activities on the field. This process was necessary for him to regain his physical shape and confidence before fully reintegrating into the group. During these training sessions, the coaching staff, especially the goalkeeper trainers, highly praised the young man's progress. They highlight Raphael's commitment and dedication at each stage of his recovery.

Even during treatment, Raphael did not completely withdraw from the club environment. As soon as he received medical clearance to carry out activities at the gym, he returned to the Ninho do Urubu Training Center, which was essential to maintain his physical shape and prepare for his return to the pitch.
