If you've been out of touch with Vasco news during the World Cup and are lost, no problem. ge explains everything that happened on and off the field since the team last played, more than 40 days ago. These were weeks of hectic news that affected Vasco's football, even without the team playing during the World Cup break. This Thursday, Vasco returns to the Brazilian Championship, against Vitória, in Salvador. See the timeline below. The Timeline of Vasco's Last Few Days May 31st to June 18th - Relegation Zone and Renato Gaúcho's Departure Vasco's objective was to reach the World Cup break in a comfortable position in the Brazilian Championship. That didn't happen. The team had recovered at the beginning of Renato Gaúcho's tenure, but its performance plummeted. The defeat to Atlético-MG at São Januário sent the club into the World Cup break in the relegation zone. Near the players' return from vacation, Renato was dismissed, a decision that took into account the atmosphere between the squad and the coaching staff. It was understood that the coach had exposed the players too much with statements in press conferences. There were also disagreements about training methodology and decisions during matches. With the end of the staff and player vacations, Vasco had a plan to execute: hire a coach and strengthen the squad. The club advanced in negotiations for Nelson Deossa and intensified its search for a coach after failed attempts with Marcelo Gallardo, Vasco Matos, and other names. However, on June 22nd, the court accepted an injunction (case number 777) that removed Pedrinho from the leadership of Vasco's SAF (Sociedade Anônima do Futebol - Football Limited Company). The judge's decision was to appoint Samantha Longo, a former lawyer for the CBF (Brazilian Football Confederation), as the interim administrator. This generated an institutional crisis at the club and hampered a series of football-related movements, from the arrival of reinforcements to the sale of the SAF to Marcos Lamacchia. All of this happened amidst a political split within the Sempre Vasco group, Pedrinho's slate. The board dismissed four members of the CRVG's (Clube de Regatas Vasco da Gama) administrative management. In an interview, the president said that shadows sabotaged the club during the negotiation period with Lamacchia in favor of 777. June 23rd to July 1st - Public statements for the first time regarding the sale Pedrinho's departure led Marcos Lamacchia and José Roberto Lamacchia to speak publicly for the first time since the beginning of negotiations. The investors stated that talks began back in 2024 and that there was already an agreement for the purchase of Vasco's football operations. However, both conditioned the investment on Pedrinho's return to the power of Vasco's SAF (Sociedade Anônima do Futebol - Football Limited Company). The investors also accused members expelled from the management by Pedrinho of acting against the negotiation and in favor of 777. Fans protested in person and online, in favor of the sale of Vasco's football operations and Pedrinho's return. June 30th to July 2nd - Frustrated Soap Operas Due to New Coach While all the legal chaos surrounding Vasco's SAF (Sociedade Anônima do Futebol - Football Limited Company) continued, the club needed to act to prevent off-field issues from affecting its football planning. But it wasn't possible. Admar Lopes had to deal with the legal administrator, who lacked experience in managing football clubs, to resolve on-field demands. Due to the instability, Vasco was unable to finalize the contracts of coaches Franclim Carvalho, from Botafogo, and later Fernando Seabra, from Coritiba. And the instability pointed out by the coaches was confirmed soon after. The administrator, Samantha Longo, resigned from her position, citing personal safety reasons. The judge in the case declared herself ineligible and left the case. Vasco had no coach or manager in the SAF. Even the process that triggered the legal chaos would be handled by another magistrate on a provisional basis. July 1st to July 10th - More legal challenges and Pedrinho's return On July 1st, Vasco requested the revocation of the injunction in court, alleging that the measure caused institutional paralysis in Vasco's football operations. The club even mentioned that it had an ongoing negotiation with striker Gabriel Pec, but that it was unable to proceed with the talks. The striker signed with Cruzeiro. A group of 106 council members published a manifesto in su...
