The decision was taken after the player collapsed during an exam at the Bala Funda Training Center in November last year.
According to ESPN reports, Oscar had no pulse for 50 seconds that day.
The midfielder was diagnosed with vasovagal syncope, which causes a drop in blood pressure and heart rate and causes him to lose consciousness.
He was hospitalized for five days at the Albert Einstein Hospital in Sao Paulo.
The idea among the Tricolore management is to bring Oscar into the club’s backroom.
This season, the midfielder has scored 2 goals and provided 5 assists in 21 games.
