Pedrinho Re‑elected Vasco President as Almirante Preparations Move Forward

Overview

• Pedrinho won a decisive victory in the club vote, receiving 4,575 of 5,875 ballots and securing the presidency for the 2027–2029 triênio.
• The election used a hybrid online and in‑person model and kept a calm tone at the Calabouço during voting on November 14, 2026, when turnout reached roughly three quarters of eligible associates.
• Shareholders already approved Almirante Participações to take 90% of Vasco’s football company, the SAF, but the transfer remains subject to regulatory review by the CBF before it becomes final.
• Under the new deal the associativo’s ownership will fall from 30% to 10%, which will shift operational power over the professional team to the investor while leaving the association responsible for stadium ownership, Olympic sports and internal governance.
• Pedrinho says his priorities are financial recovery, avoiding salary delays and transfer bans, and advancing São Januário reform while he acts as a fiscal and political link between the associativo and the incoming investor.
