Why Michael is missing Flamengo v Atlético-MG in the Copa do Brasil 👀 | OneFootball

Flamengo releases list of players for the match without Michael

Flamengo is finalizing preparations to face Atlético-MG this Wednesday (06), for the second leg of the round of 16 of the Copa do Brasil. With this in mind, the Most Beloved has released the list of players for the clash. Thus, one absence caught the attention of the rubro-negra fans: Michael.

In recent weeks, Michael has been recovering from pain in his left ankle. However, the forward participated in training on Monday (04), 'fueling' hopes of returning to the field against Atlético-MG. However, according to a report from Coluna do Fla, the number 30 was kept out due to a technical decision by Filipe Luís, due to the time away from the field.

IS MICHAEL LEAVING FLAMENGO?

It's worth noting that Michael has lost his place in Filipe Luís' team. For this reason, the forward does not rule out a departure from Flamengo in this transfer window. Previously, the number 30 received a one-year loan offer from Al-Ula (SAU) for 2.5 million dollars (about R$ 13.8 million), but decided to stay at Mengão.

DOES FLAMENGO HAVE REINFORCEMENTS FOR THE GAME?

While Michael remains out, coach Filipe Luís has two 'homegrown' reinforcements for Wednesday (06): Arrascaeta and Cebolinha. The Uruguayan, who was rested in the first leg, is back available to face Atlético-MG. In addition, the number 11 has recovered from a muscle tendinitis and is preparing for the trip to Belo Horizonte.

WHEN DO FLAMENGO AND ATLÉTICO-MG FACE EACH OTHER?

Without Arrascaeta, Flamengo faces Atlético-MG this Wednesday (06), for the second leg of the round of 16 of the Copa do Brasil. The interstate classic takes place at 7pm (Brasília time), at the MRV Arena. Thus, as tradition dictates, Coluna do Fla brings all the details of the match, through YouTube, the website and social networks.
