Zero, the player worked without limitations this Monday. The athlete, in fact, had trained as a starter last week before the duel at Castelão, but the infection suffered on Saturday made him undergo tests, receive intravenous medication and rest to recover fully.

More Young among the three right-backs in the red and black squad, Wesley is the player in the position who played the most in 2023, with 43 matches, two goals scored and one assist.


The year began with Matheuzinho fighting for the ownership with Varela. Wesley entered the fray upon Sampaoli's arrival and took over the position permanently in the Argentine's third match. With Tite, he had started all the clashes.


Although he only established himself after the departure of Vítor Pereira, the Portuguese vetoed a loan to Barcelona's B team in January.

With the sequence and affirmation among professionals, it gained value and received surveys from English football teams.
