What’s next for Vegetti at Vasco? Staying or leaving? Find out here! | OneFootball

Vasco is experiencing a transition in its attack leadership that has caught many fans by surprise. Pablo Vegetti, the "Pirate," an idol and offensive reference since his arrival, is facing his most delicate moment with the cross-maltese jersey. According to an analysis by the portal Antenados no Futebol, the Argentine is experiencing his "worst half of the season" at the club, losing space, minutes, and the absolute starting position that seemed untouchable.

The rise of Rayan and the bench

The decline in Vegetti's performance coincided with the explosion of Rayan. The youth academy gem, the team's top scorer in the "Diniz Era" and recently elected the Revelation of the Brazilian Championship, took command of the attack with physical vigor and mobility, characteristics that the coach values.

The Argentine, who has always stood out for his dedication and leadership, saw his goal numbers dwindle in the last semester. The unusual drought sparked internal and external debates about the veteran's adaptation to the more dynamic style of play proposed by the current coaching staff. From an undisputed starter, he became an option on the bench, watching the meteoric rise of the young competitor.

Uncertain future at São Januário

Despite the bad phase, Vegetti maintains the respect of the group and the idol status among fans. He refused offers from other Serie A clubs in the past to stay at Vasco, showing loyalty. However, football is dynamic.

With a current contract, the forward has not expressed a desire to leave, but the scenario for 2026 is uncertain. His stay will depend on his ability to reinvent himself and how the management plans to balance the veteran's experience with the meteoric rise of Rayan. The "Pirate" will have to fight to prove that his cycle at São Januário is not yet over.
