Corinthians player injury and transfer updates

Overview

Corinthians striker Yuri Alberto has faced setbacks in his recovery from a right hamstring injury originally sustained on July 30. While medical exams previously indicated no new injury, discomfort in his right thigh has been linked to the development of fibrosis in the scar tissue.

This issue resurfaced on August 27 during running drills as part of his physical transition, making him a doubt for the derby against Santos. Consequently, Alberto has been ruled out of the first leg of the Copa Libertadores quarterfinals against Estudiantes in Argentina.

The club’s medical department is now focusing on preparing him for the second leg of the series on September 16 at the Neo Química Arena. Further examinations will be conducted to determine the severity of the fibrosis and adjust his rehabilitation schedule.

As Alberto’s recovery progresses, the club continues to consider striker Carlos Vinicius as a potential replacement, though any acquisition remains contingent on the sale of Alberto to a European club. Other squad updates include the potential return of Memphis Depay to the starting lineup, while Hugo Souza, Rodrigo Garro, and Matheus Bidu are expected to be available. The team remains without Breno Bidon due to suspension and André, who is recovering from a thigh injury amid negotiations with Nottingham Forest.
