Vasco da Gama continues to advance in the process of selling the Football Corporation (SAF). Internally, the club shows confidence in a positive outcome and holds frequent meetings with investor Marcos Lamachia, who, so far, is the name closest to a definitive conclusion.
The negotiations are at an advanced stage and are seen as different from previous negotiations. According to reports, Lamachia was the investor who advanced the most in the process, surpassing the initial phase of signing the NDA (confidentiality agreement), a stage where other interested parties did not pass.

Since resuming control of the SAF after breaking with 777 Partners, President Pedrinho has been conducting the process with caution and planning. The management is working to structure the club before the sale, with the judicial recovery well underway and negotiations in progress to reorganize the financial scenario.
The current management is considered more meticulous compared to the previous administration. Unlike the process led by Jorge Salgado, when the shares were sold to the American company, the current administration seeks an investor aligned with the club's sports and institutional project, and not just interested in financial returns.

Vasco's goal is to complete the sale of the SAF this season, ensuring administrative stability and conditions for more solid sports planning in the medium and long term.
