The contract includes a purchase option set at €8 million, R$ 46.7 million at current rates, which Vasco must activate by November to make the deal permanent.

The board view a longer loan favourably, as it provides more time to manage cash flow.

Vasco also have Carlos Cuesta, Johan Rojas and Cuiabano on loan until the end of the year, all with options to buy.

Separately, Matheus França’s deal runs to the end of June. He will not remain at São Januário after the World Cup pause, and will return to Crystal Palace in England.
