Palmeiras tries to regularize Cameroonian striker for duel with Coritiba

The management needed to wait for the transfer window to open, which happened this Monday (20), to register the athlete's contract with the CBF BID. However, Miguel is not yet released to act.

The striker has been undergoing testing at Palmeiras since March and will initially be integrated into the under-20 team. Miguel caught attention during a training game for the Alviverde squad by scoring two goals and signed a contract.

Palmeiras will have many absences in the offensive sector, which is why Miguel Bilong could be an option on the bench. Abel Ferreira is without Allan and Paulinho (suspended), and Flaco López (on vacation after the World Cup). Vitor Roque is recovered from injury, but will start as an option among the substitutes.

Felipe Teresa and Heittor, highlights of Palmeiras' under-20 squad and ahead of Miguel in the fight for a place in the professional ranks, are focused on the first game of the semi-final of the Brazilian Championship against Bragantino, on Thursday, at 4pm (Brasília time). Therefore, they are not options for Abel Ferreira.

Those who follow Miguel's day-to-day life at the club say that he is a player who stands out for his physical imposition, speed and finishing.
