How much will Vasco save with Alex Teixeira and Loide Augusto leaving? | OneFootball

Vasco has taken two fundamental steps to optimize its squad and, most importantly, its payroll. The club has finalized the loan of forward Loide Augusto and agreed to terminate the contract with club idol Alex Teixeira. Together, these two departures will result in an annual savings of approximately R$ 6.6 million for the club's coffers.

Vasco will save more than half a million per month

The financial analysis reveals the extent of the relief. The loan of Loide Augusto to Rizespor, in Turkey, until June 2026, will free Vasco from a monthly salary of R$ 350,000. Meanwhile, the termination with Alex Teixeira represents a savings of nearly R$ 200,000 per month.

Together, these two moves provide an immediate relief of R$ 550,000 per month in the club’s payroll, a crucial amount for an institution undergoing Judicial Recovery.

The decisions were motivated by the low performance of the athletes. Loide Augusto did not score goals or provide assists in 18 matches. Similarly, Alex Teixeira, in his third stint, was also unable to repeat the brilliance of the past. Despite this, he was internally seen as an important figure for his seriousness and professionalism with the younger players.

The list of departures may still grow

The “clean-up” of the squad may not stop there. The club is still working to find a destination for other players who are not in Fernando Diniz’s plans, such as defender Mauricio Lemos and forward Jean David. The goal is clear: optimize resources to focus on a leaner and more competitive squad.
