Vasco da Gama dream of Marcelo Gallardo, talks already underway | OneFootball

While the River World is still reeling after Marcelo Gallardo's resignation, Vasco da Gama dreams of hiring him and has already opened talks with the coach, waiting to see if the "Muñeco" wants to manage in the short term or would prefer to take a break.

For now, Gallardo is focused on his farewell at El Monumental against Banfield, where he requested not to receive plaques or special mentions, probably knowing that it will be the attending public who will honor him with songs and applause for the affection they have for him, despite his second stint at the club being forgettable and not meeting expectations.

Cruzmaltino dismissed Fernando Diniz after a poor start in the Brasileirao and a defeat in the first leg of the Carioca Championship semifinals against Fluminense, so they are now focused on finding a replacement willing to take the reins of the team immediately, which could complicate any negotiation attempts.

According to Brazilian media, the management of the Albinegro team wants to hire a high-profile name because they believe it is time to take a step forward. Therefore, besides Gallardo, Artur Jorge, the 2024 Copa Libertadores champion with Botafogo now at Al-Rayyan, and Renato Gaucho, a Brasileirao legend who is free after a stint with Fluminense, are also strongly considered.

It is worth noting that Vasco will compete in the Copa Sudamericana this year after finishing fourteenth in the last league, which means they could potentially face the Nuñez team in this tournament.
