The process of reshaping the Vasco da Gama squad for the 2026 season gained a new chapter this Wednesday (07). With the urgent need to open up spots for foreign players — due to the arrivals of Johan Rojas and Alan Saldivia — the management is prioritizing the departure of athletes who have not performed as expected. The leading candidate to leave São Januário is the Argentine attacking midfielder Benjamín Garré, who has caught the attention of clubs in his home country.

Huracán’s Interest and Vasco’s Stance

According to journalist Joel Silva from the Colina em Foco channel, Argentina’s Huracán has shown concrete interest in bringing the 25-year-old player back. Garré played for the Argentine club in 2022 and left a good impression there, a stark contrast to his current situation in Rio de Janeiro.

Vasco is not expected to make the deal difficult. On the contrary, the management has already informed the player’s representatives that he is free to seek a new destination. The goal is to facilitate his departure during this transfer window, whether through a permanent sale or a loan with an option to buy, aiming to reduce the wage bill and resolve the “overbooking” of foreign players in the squad.

Disappointing Numbers

Signed at the beginning of 2025 as a bet for the creative sector, Garré did not live up to expectations and is no longer in coach Fernando Diniz’s plans. The numbers justify the decision: wearing the number 15 shirt, he played 21 matches last season, did not score any goals, and contributed just one assist.

Despite having a contract valid for another two years, his stay has become unsustainable both technically and administratively. He is part of the “departure boat” that could reach double digits, and his agents are racing against time to close a deal with Huracán or another interested club in the South American market in the coming weeks.
