Why Vasco’s new attacking midfielder isn’t official yet | OneFootball

The signing of attacking midfielder Matheus França by Vasco is in its final stage, but still depends on a bureaucratic detail to be made official. The club has already reached an agreement with the player and with Crystal Palace from England. However, the Vasco board is now waiting for the return of the sent documentation to be able to seal the deal.

Vasco has an agreement with the player and the English club

The information, disclosed by journalist Lucas Pedrosa from the Canal do Pedrosa, confirms that the negotiation is fully aligned. Vasco reached an agreement with all parties last Friday. The agreement provides for a loan of the 21-year-old player, valid for one season.

The Rio club has therefore completed all stages of the negotiation. The signing has now entered the final stage of formalization.

What prevents the official announcement is a standard procedure in international transfers. Vasco sent the contract documents to England last Friday. Now, the board is waiting for Crystal Palace to return this documentation duly signed.

Expectation is for resolution in the coming days

Although the deal is not yet 100% closed, the situation is treated with great optimism. The obstacle is purely bureaucratic and should not jeopardize the transfer. The expectation at São Januário is that the situation will be resolved in the coming days. Thus, the player will finally be able to sign his contract and travel to Brazil to join the team.
