Vasco da Gama took the final step towards consolidating its financial restructuring.

Document confirms capacity of up to 57 thousand people

Amid the financial terms, an "important fact" was revealed. According to the official document, the stadium is projected to accommodate between 55 and 57 thousand fans. The number, much anticipated by the fans, was included in the section presenting the economic viability of the renovation project, highlighting the stadium's potential as a strategic asset for the club's recovery.

Vasco seeks final court approval

The request for approval made to the 4th Business Court is the last step after the massive approval of the plan by creditors, in an assembly held on October 9. The meeting, which lasted more than 7 hours, had an overwhelming approval, with 96.53% of the votes in the Labor Class.

With the final court approval, Vasco seeks to consolidate the agreement, ensure legal security, and predictability of payments, fundamental steps for the continuation of the club's restructuring project.
