In presentation at Vasco, Barbieri projects cast ready in January

In his first interview as Vasco’s coach, Mauricio Barbieri spoke about the relationship he will have with Abel Braga, the club’s technical director. Both signed a contract with Cruzmaltino last Tuesday (6). “He is someone who can add knowledge and experience to any coach of my generation, in addition to being a victor and that weighed heavily on me to be here”.

Cases of Zé Vitor, Erick Marcus, Paulinho, who is even younger. Still with the squad in formation, Barbieri explained how the first jobs with the players will be “It is to build with them an idea of, as a player, passing on my concepts of what we understand that we have to do. We are highlighting January a lot because the idea is that the cast will be more ready there, with more names. But since today the work begins, we are already going to the field”. Striker Pedro Raul is very close to being confirmed as a Vasco player and the possible reinforcement has Barbieri’s full endorsement. “I can’t answer about a player who didn’t actually arrive. He is a player who had a fantastic season at Goiás. He has physical imposition, presence in the area and I would be very happy to count on him”, he concluded.
