Pablo Vegetti agrees deal to join Cerro Porteño as new signing | OneFootball

After having worn out the nets in Brazil’s stadiums, where he established himself as the top scorer of 2025 despite having seen his role diminish 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 the new signing for Cerro Porteño and will look to keep scoring in Paraguay.

The experienced striker has reached an agreement to become the new face of the Ciclón de Barrio Obrero. He is expected to finalize his departure from Rio de Janeiro this weekend and travel to Asunción between Monday and Tuesday to sign a three-season contract and be presented publicly.

Relentless in the box and with the ambition to lift the first trophy of his career—a goal that has eluded him for some time now (he recently lost the Copa do Brasil final against Corinthians)—Vegetti will join a title-contending team in his new country, which will also compete in the Copa Libertadores.

According to Paraguayan media, the former Belgrano player will be the highest-paid footballer in the entire league. His goals come at a high price, and he arrives after scoring 60 goals in 141 matches during his time at Vasco, where the only thing missing was a championship. These offensive numbers make him the club’s second-highest scorer of the 21st century, behind only a legend like Romario.

In total, his record shows 191 goals in 460 appearances. An impressive average of 0.41—almost a guaranteed thrill every two matches.
