Fluminense was paralyzed this Saturday after receiving worrying news from the Brazil team, which is preparing to visit Uruguay on Tuesday to leave behind the tie with Venezuela for the South American Qualifiers. According to O Globo, their defender and captain Nino, who is part of the Verdeamarelas ranks under the guidance of Flu coach Fernando Diniz, suffered a sensitive injury days before the final of the Copa Libertadores with Boca.
According to the publication, the loss occurred in training this Saturday in Montevideo, from which the defender had to leave with a sprained left knee. As the situation occurred when the work was still closed to the press, upon his entry they already found that the player was no longer on the field. Beyond the shock of the moment, studies remain to be carried out to understand the extent of the ailment.
The countdown, a sensitive moment for injuries and setbacks
Nino’s injury occurs less than a month before the Libertadores final. On November 4, Fluminense will face Boca in search of the unprecedented continental title, while Xeneize will go for its long-awaited seventh consecration. The 26-year-old defender has accumulated 49 appearances this season in his team and, beyond appearing in Fernando Diniz’s two calls, he has not yet added minutes with Brazil.
