The training sessions of the Portuguese club Benfica witnessed positive news as Colombian midfielder Richard Rios and Danish full-back Alexander Bah participated gradually in the latest training session. This was part of the team's preparations for their upcoming match against Santa Clara in the next round of the Portuguese league.

This development comes after a period of absence for the players due to injury. Reus was suffering from a shoulder dislocation, while Bah had recovered from a serious cruciate ligament injury that kept him away from the field for a long time. He is now gradually returning to the pitch under the supervision of coach José Mourinho.

Despite their return to group training, reports indicate that their participation in the upcoming match is still uncertain, as the coaching staff is working on integrating them gradually to avoid any physical setbacks.

Benfica is in third place in the Portuguese league behind Porto and Sporting, and is striving to win to keep its hopes alive in the title race this season.
