After Flamengo's training session this Friday (19.06), at the George Helal Training Center, the Head of the club's Medical Department, José Luiz Runco, gave a press conference to journalists and analyzed each case the physical situations of Almir, with an elbow injury, Paulo Victor, with a fractured fibula, and Nixon, recovering from an injury to the patellar tendon in his knee.

Check out what the doctor said about each athlete:

Almir
- Two more weeks off. Then you'll complete six weeks and you'll be able to train again.

Paulo victor
- He suffered a simple fracture. It healed properly and he's expected to be out for four weeks.

Nixon
"He was already engaged in physical preparation, but in the last two training sessions, he experienced shortness of breath. He's undergoing a series of tests. This week, he'll have a cardiac MRI. We're tracking what might have happened and ruling out any possibility of a heart problem and seeing if it could be a psychosomatic neurovegetative issue."
