Joel in doubt about Toró's replacement
Roger, Renato Augusto, Maxi and Léo Medeiros are competing for a spot.
By Flamengo Archive - inFlamengo heads out this Tuesday afternoon (November 20th) for a week of training at Granja Comary. Coach Joel Santana will take the opportunity to choose a replacement for midfielder Toró, who is suspended for receiving three yellow cards.
"We have until Friday to choose Toró's replacement for the match against Atlético-PR. We'll explore the best option at Granja. The most important thing is that the player who comes in knows what to do."
The red-black commander revealed the candidates for the midfield position.
"I have four options for the position. Roger, Renato Augusto, Léo Medeiros, and Maxi are all competing for it. I'm very calm because they're all excellent options."
Joel once again recalled the difficulties that Flamengo will face on Sunday (25/11), against Atlético-PR.
"They're a very good team. It will be a very tough matchup. They performed very well away from home, against Corinthians and Cruzeiro. Atlético-PR is an experienced team and well-positioned on the field."
