Vasco are racing the clock on a last push for Richarlison, aiming to strike a solution in England before the window shuts.

O Globo reports that the striker’s lawyer flew to London on Friday morning to try to unblock his exit from Tottenham. Termination is the first option after the club judged Vasco’s opening bid too low.

Faced with an impasse, Vasco have put a final proposal on the table to avoid the dispute landing in court. The board know the number nine wants freedom to pursue an overseas move in January, so they are asking the English club to accept the economics while trying to persuade the forward to join now.

To entice him, Vasco are considering a significant signing-on fee and a percentage of any future sale. The legal structure envisages a long contract with instalments, and any later compensation from another club would cover costs if an attractive bid arrives at year end.

Timing is the biggest hurdle under Brazil’s market rules. All formalities must be completed and signed within the next hour, including the exchange of drafts across continents, and his contract must end today to secure registration in the confederation system.

If a definitive sale is not agreed in time, Richarlison could still terminate his deal with the English club in the coming days, become a free agent and still be registered by Vasco this season.

The outcome now hinges on rapid diplomacy before registrations close. Staff at São Januário are on standby to file paperwork at the first sign of progress. Supporters are watching anxiously.
