Grêmio football club fitness management

Overview

Following his return to manage Grêmio during a relegation battle in the Campeonato Brasileiro, coach Renato Gaúcho implemented strict fitness and weight standards for his squad. After a 0-0 draw against Palmeiras, Gaúcho described the club’s situation as “arduous” and reduced players' time off during the FIFA international break to focus on physical conditioning.

As the deadline approached, the technical commission identified three players who had not met the required physical parameters. Gaúcho warned that players failing to reach ideal fitness levels by the end of the international break would face consequences such as reduced playing time, loss of starting positions, or alternative training schedules.
