Important player of the Brazilian national team is seriously injured and out for the World Cup
Guilherme Arana of Atlético-MG, considered one of the Brazilian fullbacks at this year’s World Cup in Qatar, will not be at the biggest tournament in world soccer.
The club player from Minas Gerais has suffered a severe injury and is therefore absent from the international competition.
The information comes from ESPN.
On Wednesday (7), as part of the Brasileirão, Galo received Bragantino at home, a game that ended badly for Arana.
The player injured his knee, and the recovery time will not be enough to participate with the national team in the World Cup.
Guilherme Arana was considered Brazil’s left-back at the World Cup, along with other names like Alex Sandro.
However, due to the player’s injury, Tite has to resort to other fullbacks in that position.
At this moment, Alex Telles from Sevilla is gaining strength.
Atlético-MG is yet to announce the recovery time for Arana and all recovery procedures.
Without the defender, Cuca will also have significant problems for the rest of the season as Galo fights to participate in the Libertadores.
Tite will announce the names that will go to the World Cup in the next few days.
The list of 26 names of the Brazilian coach could contain some surprises.
