After having scored numerous goals in Brazil, where he established himself as the top scorer of 2025 despite having reduced his prominence at Vasco da Gama, Pablo Vegetti will seek to leave his mark in another league on the continent. At 37 years old, he will be a new addition to Cerro Porteño and will aim to continue scoring in Paraguay.

The experienced forward reached an agreement to be the new face of the Ciclón de Barrio Obrero. It is expected that he will finalize his departure from Brazilian lands this weekend and that between Monday and Tuesday he will travel to Asunción to sign his contract for three seasons and be publicly presented.

Relentless in the area and with the ambition to win the first title of his career, which has eluded him for some time (he recently lost the Copa de Brasil final against Corinthians), Vegetti will join a contending team in his country that will also compete in the Copa Libertadores.

According to the Paraguayan press, the former Belgrano player will be the highest-paid footballer in the entire league. His goals come at a high price, and he has scored 60 in 141 matches during his time at Vasco, where he only missed out on a championship. Offensive numbers that place him as the second-highest scorer of the club in the 21st century, only behind a legend like Romario.

In total, his records indicate that he has accumulated 191 goals in 460 appearances. An impressive average of 0.41, almost a guaranteed thrill every two matches.
