Good News for Corinthians Ahead of the Final Against Palmeiras
Corinthians returned to training with their sights set on the grand final of the Campeonato Paulista, which will take place on March 27 at the Arena Itaquera against Palmeiras. After three days of rest, the squad reunited at the CT Joaquim Grava to begin a crucial week of training, focusing on physical and tactical aspects in preparation for the decisive clash.
According to R7 Esportes, coach Ramón Díaz did not have several of his regular starters in Thursday's practice, as Memphis Depay, André Carrillo, Ángel Romero, José Martínez, and Félix Torres are committed to their respective national teams due to the FIFA date. However, the club is already working on special logistics to ensure everyone is available in time for the state championship showdown.
Meanwhile, the team's medical staff delivered some encouraging news: midfielder Igor Coronado has shown progress in his recovery from a right thigh injury and has begun the physical transition phase. The goal is for him to be in optimal condition to join the squad for the final.
Corinthians holds the advantage after defeating Palmeiras away in the first match. Now, they only need a draw at home to claim a title they haven't won since 2019. Additionally, the team remains unbeaten at home this year, boosting the optimism of their fans.
