According to Globo Esporte Futebol, the players and trainer, who are creditors of the club in the Judicial Recovery process, argue that the current sale negotiation violates the clauses of the debt repayment plan. The group, represented by lawyer Thiago Rino, claims that the sale can only occur after approval in a new assembly of creditors.
The players involved in the request are William Barbio, Douglas Silva, Lucas Siqueira, Breno, Lucas Kal, Willian Maranhão, and Luiz Gustavo, all of whom played for Vasco at some point. They are seeking a 30-day suspension of the sale process and the constitution of the new SAF until a decision is made. The group also requests that the Public Ministry and the Judicial Administrator issue a statement within 48 hours of notification.
