Vasco confirm signing of Argentine striker Spinelli | OneFootball

Vasco announced this Monday the signing of Argentine forward Claudio Spinelli, who was previously with Independiente del Valle in Ecuador. The 29-year-old player joins Cruzmaltino on a permanent deal, with a contract valid until December 2028.

“I promise to give my all for these colors, for these fans. It’s a big step in my career, a great sporting challenge for me. I am very happy and eager to win,” said Vasco’s new signing.

With the departure of key offensive players from the squad, such as Rayan and Vegetti, Spinelli could emerge as a replacement. In 2025, the forward was the top scorer for Independiente del Valle across all competitions, netting 28 goals in 50 matches.

The Argentine player becomes Vasco’s sixth signing for the season. Before him, the club had already announced defender Alan Saldivia, full-back Cuiabano, and forwards Johan Rojas, Marino, and Brenner.
