Vasco da Gama’s squad has already been presented for the 2017 season and will have its first challenge this January in the Florida Cup, a friendly competition held in the United States. This is going to be the first showing of what the Gigante da Colina will be capable of accomplishing this year of its comeback to Brazilian elite soccer.
However, it’s still a mystery in what shape the team now managed by Cristóvão Borges will be in this season? Until now, the only new player added is midfielder Damián Escudero. Although the club’s board announced R$ 20 million budget for transfers, the biggest squad changes are the players leaving.
