A pure absence of injury

The player completes physiotherapy sessions away from group exercises until he recovers.
Coca returns to participate
On the other hand, the team’s training today witnessed the return of the player Ahmed Nabil “Coca”, who recovered from a knee bruise that he suffered during the Inter Miami match in the first round, and caused his absence from facing Palmeiras in the second round.
