Internacional counts on a new addition and releases squad list to face Atlético-MG in the Brasileirão
Internacional has released the list of players called up for the match against Atlético-MG, valid for the 24th round of the Brazilian Championship Serie A. The game is scheduled for this Saturday (22nd), at 6:30 PM (Brasília time), at Estádio Beira-Rio, in Porto Alegre.
The main novelty in coach Paulo Pezzolano‘s squad is the inclusion of new signing Niclas Eliasson. The Swedish forward had his name published in the Daily Informative Bulletin (BID) of the CBF and is cleared to make his debut for the Colorado club. Another regularized player, Antonio Sanabria, will not be available for this game.
Key Midfield Absence
The Colorado club will be without Matheus Bahia, who will serve a suspension after receiving his third yellow card in the 1-1 draw against Remo last Monday (17th). The player’s absence opens up space for Aguirre to be improvised in the position.
Complete Squad List:
- Goalkeepers: Anthoni and Matheus Cunha
- Defenders: Aguirre, Bernabei, Bruno Gomes, Félix Torres, Gabriel Mercado, Juninho, Luiz Felipe, and Maripán
- Midfielders: Alan Patrick, Allex, Bruno Henrique, Calebe, Gabriel Vinicius, Paulinho Paula, Ronaldo, Thiago Maia, and Villagra
- Forwards: Alerrandro, Carbonero, Eliasson, and Vitinho
Internacional’s probable lineup to face Galo is: Matheus Cunha; Bruno Gomes, Gabriel Mercado, Maripán, and Aguirre; Villagra, Bruno Henrique, Vitinho, Alan Patrick, and Bernabei; Carbonero.
The match is crucial for Internacional in their quest for better positions in the Brasileirão standings.
