Marcos Lamacchia wears Vasco shirt and urges court to approve SAF auction | OneFootball

Investor Marcos Lamacchia made a public show of support before Vasco’s game at Palmeiras in São Paulo on Sunday, urging swift court approval to stage the Vasco SAF auction.

On the pitch at Allianz Parque (Nubank Parque), he wore a Vasco shirt with Facundo Colidio’s name and was applauded near the tunnel. “Esperando a decisão da Justiça para liberar o leilão e para podermos transformar o Vasco. Por hora, é isso.” he told ge.

The visit included a dressing-room stop and talks with coach Pedro Emanuel, alongside senior figures such as Admar Lopes and Felipe, and he greeted Palmeiras president Leila Pereira.

Discussions focused on the Recuperação Judicial schedule. Both club chiefs and the investors argue that holding the judicial auction now would avoid reliance on stop-gap finance like the R$ 150 million DIP loan, which remains tied up in court.

Lamacchia reiterated that, once in charge, he would advance the equivalent of two years of Recuperação Judicial instalments to reassure creditors.

Family counsel André Sica said political swings at Vasco repeatedly stalled talks over about two and a half years, credited Pedrinho with keeping Lamacchia at the table, and said an investment agreement has been signed. With Almirante Participações set as the base price for market competition, Vasco await a ruling from the 4th Business Court to schedule the auction and formalise the transition.
