Part 2/8:
At the heart of the negotiations is the sale of approximately 31% of the club’s shares, with an assessment suggesting that the total evaluation of Vasco sits around 1 billion Brazilian Reais. Vasco is looking for an investment of around 350 million Reais, which emphasizes the magnitude of the financial commitment required from the potential new owners.
The Greek contender, Marinakis, is looking for complete control over the club. His goal is to acquire up to 90% of the shares, as current laws prevent full ownership, with a small percentage held by the association. Marinakis has established a network within the football industry, including having prominent Brazilian entrepreneur Juliano Bertolutti working alongside him, indicating he intends for a more centralized control of club operations.
