The 34-year-old midfielder sat out of the Tricolor’s training session on Monday and was instead treated by the clubs medical staff.

”Deco has a virus, like other people are getting in Rio de Janeiro. It was Wagner who got it last Friday, but on Saturday he was fine,” Braga said.

”Let’s see how Deco will recover. If he’s 100% fit, then he will play, but if not, Thiago Neves will take his place.”

Fluminense’s possible starting XI: Diego Cavalieri, Bruno, Leandro Euzebio, Anderson, Carlinhos; Edinho, Diguinho, Wagner, Thiago Neves (Deco); Fred and Rafael Sobis
