Targets set! Vasco gives coach deadline, lines up Nelson Deossa | OneFootball

Vasco's executive football department is working under an immediate deadline behind the scenes and hopes to finalize the hiring of the new head coach by this Tuesday. Defining the technical command is being treated as the top priority to begin the mid-season work at the training center.

According to information released by the Atenção Vascaínos channel, the strategic plan is to announce the coach so he can be directly involved in building the squad. If the deal is completed within the expected timeframe, management will then move to seal the signing of Colombian defensive midfielder Nelson Deossa.

Nelson Deossa becomes a priority at Vasco

The 26-year-old midfielder, a Vasco target, belongs to Spain's Real Betis, and talks are being conducted over an initial loan deal with a purchase option established in the contract. The board's intention is to complete the agreement jointly in order to present the new arrivals to the fans.

Even if there is some unexpected delay in the coach's announcement, the executives will continue normally with the deal alongside representatives of the Spanish club. The leadership's understanding is that the arrival of the ball-winning player should be finalized independently of whoever takes over the coaching staff.

Market strategy and loans

The business model set up with Real Betis repeats the same financial strategy previously adopted by the SAF football department in the signings of Robert Renan, Cuesta, Rojas, and Andrés Gómez. The loan transaction protects the club's finances and guarantees a future purchase option.

The contractual situation of the Colombian defensive midfielder with Vasco is already held up by minor pending bureaucratic details. The general expectation in the halls of São Januário is to make the official double announcement in the coming hours to strengthen the group of players.
