According to the director, there have already been talks between Vasco and CBF about the possible call-up of the youngster. However, Branco admitted that the player's release will not be simple, as Rayan has established himself as an absolute starter of Fernando Diniz's team.

“Rayan is a player that interests us a lot, he has been standing out and we have already had talks with Vasco. But we know that it will be difficult for the club to release him”, declared Branco. + Vasco closes with heavyweight executive to lead SAF's business; find out who it is! Photo: Reproduction.

The topic, in fact, has already been a point of dialogue between the coach of the U-20 team, Ramon Menezes, and the coach of Vasco, Fernando Diniz. The situation creates a deadlock, as the absence of the attacker during a crucial period of the season could represent a significant loss for Cruz-Maltino.

The official call-up for the U-20 World Cup should be announced in the coming weeks, and Rayan's case promises to be one of the most attention-grabbing points on the list.
