João Simões, midfielder for Sporting B, is back in contention for the team. The player had been sidelined since mid-April due to a new fracture of the fifth metatarsal in his right foot.
The injury had kept the young midfielder out of competition for several months, but he has now regained availability to join the bench.
His call-up comes for the home game against Lusitânia de Lourosa, where João Simões may get minutes if the manager decides to bring him on.
Sporting B fans are following the return of a young player who can strengthen the team in midfield. The fifth metatarsal injury is one of the most common and time-consuming in football, so his return represents an important milestone in the athlete's recovery.
