OUT
Injury Knee
Est. Return 1/29/2026
Expected to train this week
Santos (knee) is expected to resume team training this week for the first time since more than one year, coach Rui Borges said in a press conference, according to A Bola.
ANALYSIS
Santos has been sidelined for more than a year due to a knee injury but the attacking midfielder is expected to resume team training this week for the first time if everything goes as planned. That said, there is no doubt that Wednesday's Champions League clash against Athletic Club is coming too close for him and that he will need to wait to play UCL football.
