Active in the transfer market, Vasco is looking to sign Pepe, a Portuguese defender who is free on the market, but there is a problem with the negotiations
O Vasco remains active in the transfer market. After announcing the return of PhilippeCoutinho and forward other signings, Cruzmaltino showed interest in taking advantage of an experienced defender who is free on the market. The player in question, according to ‘GE’, is Pepewho competed in the Euro 2024 by Portugal.
The first contact with the defender’s staff took place over a month ago, but in the last few days Vasco has actually begun a process to sign him. However, even with the Rio de Janeiro club’s desire and with the veteran being free on the market, the Rio de Janeiro club will have to overcome an important hurdle: Pepe does not want to play in Brazil.
Due to family issues, Pepe ruled out the possibility of playing in Brazil, but since he is not yet linked to any other club, nothing prevents Vasco from continuing to talk to the athlete and trying to convince him. According to the international press, the defender is also considering an offer from Al-Nassra Saudi club where he would be a teammate of Cristiano Ronaldo.
