According to PaponaColina, Vasco have finalised the financial terms to sign 26-year-old centre-back Gabriel Pereira on loan from Copenhagen for €1.5m, with the agreement running until the end of the European season in mid 2027.

The clubs have set strict triggers for a permanent stay in São Januário. If he starts at least 60% of matches during the loan, Vasco will be obliged to buy him for €6m, with a further €1m in performance bonuses, taking the package close to €8.5m.

The move was enabled by the defender’s cooperation during talks. He accepted an unusual condition from the Danish club, agreeing that if he falls short of the sporting thresholds and is not bought, he will return on reduced wages compared with his current salary.

His determination to play for Vasco proved decisive, with the player prepared to give up overseas financial guarantees to stake an immediate claim for a starting spot in Brazil.

He is scheduled to land at Rio’s Galeão International Airport at 20:00 on Thursday 10, travelling with family, before medicals and contract signing at the club, then joining first-team training in the coming days.

Vasco’s staff are working to complete his registration in the Boletim Informativo Diário before the transfer window closes, so the head coach can add an experienced option for the run-in.
