Eighteen months and then it’s gone… Dimitri Payet’s adventure at Vasco da Gama is indeed already coming to an end, according to
The Team. The former Marseillais, although linked to the Carioca club until June 2025, should therefore leave Brazil before the end of the year, at the end of the Brasileirao. Consequence of a second half of the season which turned into a nightmare for the Reunionese.
The former French international has only played 15 matches – for a meager goal and three assists – in the Championship since the start of the season and on Saturday, during the semi-final second leg of the Brazilian Cup against Atletico Mineiro, he had to wait until 88e minute of play to come into play.
Dimitri Payet’s family remained in Marseille
Dimitri Payet no longer hides his dismay. “People at the club see the Frenchman sad and isolated within the squad,” wrote GloboEsporte about his departure desires. Because to this starving playing time is added the distance from his family. His partner and his children in fact remained in Marseille.
And Vasco da Gama will do nothing to hold back the Frenchman. Following the bankruptcy of its main sponsor, 777 Partners, the Brazilian club, semi-finalist in the championship last season, is in serious financial difficulties and is instead working to reduce its payroll.
