Cerro Porteño Signs Pablo Vegetti From Vasco da Gama

The 37-year-old secures a late-career multi-year deal that Vasco portrays as payroll relief.

Overview

  • Cerro Porteño officially announced the striker’s arrival on Saturday, confirming his departure from Vasco.
  • Local reporting says Vasco will receive $1.5 million in three $500,000 installments and that Vegetti agreed to a three-year contract worth about $3.35 million.
  • Brazilian outlets report the player asked to leave on Friday, with the transfer formalized the following day.
  • Vegetti had become a reserve in 2025 as Rayan emerged as the preferred center forward, and Vasco leaders described the move as a market opportunity to reduce costs.
  • He exits with 60 goals in roughly 141–143 appearances for Vasco and joins Paraguay’s reigning Clausura champion, which will play the 2026 Copa Libertadores.
