Vasco seek SAF approval before presidential election | OneFootball

Vasco are moving to secure member approval for the Vasco SAF before the club’s presidential election. According to PaponaColina, Pedrinho’s board want to finalise a deal with Almirante Participações, led by Marcos Lamacchia and Mário Junqueira, so the next three-year term begins under the new model at São Januário.

The first formal step is a Deliberative Council meeting on 6 October to vote on a statute change cutting the association’s minimum stake from 20% to 10%. The hierarchy will present economic terms and judicial recovery guarantees, seeking a favourable referendum to send the matter straight to members.

The push around an Assembleia Geral Extraordinária, AGE, is designed to calm Vasco’s politics, limiting any impact the leadership race could have on contractual targets at São Januário. The incumbent will seek re-election for a term to the end of 2029, with a possible unopposed run in light of the liquidation of historic liabilities.

Councillors will review confidential papers in a password-protected virtual room after signing a non-disclosure agreement. The move aims to stop leaks and safeguard planned investment in the training centre and academy until the final ballot.

On the pitch, the first team target key Brasileirão home ties with Botafogo and Remo in Rio, aiming to pull clear of the bottom before a decisive trip to face Boca Juniors in the Copa Sudamericana semi-final.

Head coach Pedro Emanuel has intensified training to secure results before the knockout in Buenos Aires. His staff want the financial transition’s stability to fuel a push for the season’s remaining trophies and a return to the continental elite.
