Vasco ‘to consider signing’ up to two strikers this window | OneFootball

Vasco are weighing up signing up to two strikers in this window, dependent on SAF finances, as they seek to strengthen the attack and guard against possible exits. Atenção, Vascaínos! reports that the club remain active in the market to reinforce the squad.

Among the options, Brazilian centre-forward Bruno Duarte of Estrela Vermelha has unanimous approval from scouting staff, technical director Felipe Loureiro and head coach Pedro Emanuel. The drive for extra firepower reflects a need for immediate alternatives and stronger competition for places.

Paraguayan centre-forward Alex Arce of Independiente Rivadavia is also on the radar. He is noted for his size, aerial prowess, penalty-box presence and sharp finishing in South American football.

Vasco’s strategy includes targeting seasoned profiles capable of handling pressure in the Campeonato Brasileiro. Within that bracket, Gabriel Ávalos, 35, who has represented Paraguay and scored regularly in Argentina, has been tracked by the Rio club before and is viewed as a more accessible market option.

Such a move could permit a short contract tied to performance targets. The football department aims to balance investment in a ready-made starter with a cost-effective deputy, while the board are working against the clock to adjust the budget and advance priority talks before the CBF window closes.
