Bahia announced its player list for the match against Grêmio, scheduled for 8:30 PM this Sunday, the 19th, at Arena Fonte Nova, part of the 29th round of Série A.
Among the notable returnees are players Erick, Ramos Mingo, and João Paulo, who have recovered from injuries. Erick’s return is especially significant as he has been sidelined for five months. Additionally, head coach Rogério Ceni welcomes back Gilberto and Willian José, both of whom missed the recent Ba-Vi clash due to suspensions.
However, the team continues to face challenges with midfielder Caio Alexandre still undergoing treatment for an injury, and Everton Ribeiro resting after undergoing thyroid surgery. Meanwhile, Juba has started training with the team, and Pulga is currently in transition.
The players named by coach Rogério Ceni are as follows:
Goalkeepers: Danilo Fernandes, João Paulo, and Ronaldo;
Defenders: Arias, Gilberto, Iago Borduchi, and Zé Guilherme;
Center-backs: David Duarte, Gabriel Xavier Kanu, Luiz Gustavo, and Ramos Mingo;
Midfielders: Acevedo, Cauly, Erick, Jean Lucas, Michel Araujo, Rezende, and Nestor;
Forwards: Ademir, Kayky, Ruan Pablo, Sanabria, Tiago, and Willian José.
Following their defeat in the Ba-Vi, Bahia will shift its focus to accumulating points at Arena Fonte Nova, a venue where they have proved to be a formidable presence in Série A.
