Memphis Depay faces injury setback at Corinthians
Memphis Depay is recovering from an edema in his right femoral biceps, which will likely keep him out of Corinthians' upcoming match against Mirassol. The Dutch forward has begun a physical transition phase, but the club's medical department is exercising extreme caution due to his history of muscular issues.
While the club hopes for a return to training soon, his availability for the high-stakes derby against São Paulo on November 4 remains uncertain. If he does not recover quickly, he may only return to action after the FIFA international break, between November 9 and 17.
This injury occurs during a critical period for Corinthians, as the team struggles in the Campeonato Brasileiro and fights to avoid relegation. The squad is also dealing with other medical absences, including Gabriel Paulista and Raniele, complicating the team's efforts to secure points in the final six rounds of the season.
