Brazilian is already working at Seixal again
David Neres is back at Seixal and the Benfica coach can’t wait to have the striker back on the field. The Brazilian international spent almost three weeks in Dubai, recovering from his injury at the HMS Center of Excellence, with specialist, compatriot and friend João Dias, and accompanied by Telmo Firmino, Benfica’s physiotherapist. In the meantime, he has returned to Lisbon and Benfica’s training center, as his return to the competition is close.
«He’s back, I can confirm [risos]», began by saying Roger Schmidt, at the press conference previewing the game with Famalicão, for the 15th round of the League.
«He is doing individual work, in the final phase of recovery, here with us. He is already doing field work, individual programs, and we hope that in January he can return to training with the team and also to the competition”, added Roger Schmidt, before talking about Neres’ importance in the team.
“We know how well he plays, how he can change the pace of the game. He has already performed at a top level this season, but unfortunately he had some injuries. I expect a new player. He is very motivated, and now it is on our side to bring him to the best physical condition. He is a very important player for Benfica and we are happy to have him back », concluded Schmidt.
