Nike could spring a surprise and join Vasco as early as 2025 | OneFootball

After finishing the Brazilian Championship on a low note, with a series of defeats, Vasco da Gama is focusing all its attention on the semifinal of the Copa do Brasil. The team is seeking a spot in the final, which could secure a place in the Libertadores and the chance to win a title they haven't lifted since 2011.

According to information obtained from sources close to the club's management, there is a possibility that Nike will expedite its entry as a sports equipment supplier if the club secures a spot in the final. The American giant is willing to pay the termination fee for Kappa, allowing the new partner's uniforms to be used as early as 2025.

Vasco already has a signed agreement with Nike for what will be the largest uniform supply contract in the club's history. The total value could exceed R$ 300 million over seven years, establishing the multinational as one of the main partners of the Cruz-Maltino during this period. The brand, in turn, intends to leverage the size and engagement of Vasco's fan base to expand its presence in the Brazilian market.
