The defender Maicon one of the great highlights of the Coritiba in this year’s Series B title campaign, he moved the Alviverde fans last Thursday night by leaving a possible request for reinforcement in the air. On social media, the defender reposted the goal scored by Pablo Vegetti in Vasco’s 2-1 victory over Fluminense, at Maracanã, in the Copa do Brasil, and wrote: “Come, killer!”, as highlighted by the portal Itatiaiapartner of OneTwo Sports.
The defender, who was on loan from Vasco to Coritiba, should agree on a contract renewal with Verdão in the next few days. His stay is treated as a priority by the board after the solid season that helped return the club to the first division.
Meanwhile, Coritiba remains active in the market in search of a center forward. On Thursday itself, the club announced the first reinforcement for 2026: Pedro Rochatop scorer in this year’s Series B for Remo.
Vegetti, in turn, is having one of the best seasons of his career. At 36 years old, the Argentine scored 27 goals in 62 matches for Vasco in 2025 and has become a reference in the Cruz-Maltino attack since his arrival in 2023.
Maicon’s message does not confirm negotiations, but it served to fire up the fans and increase speculation about Coritiba’s possible interest in the Vasco striker.
