After comments and rumours that Brazilian defender Mauricio was about to leave Lazio for Brazilian club Vasco da Gama, the player himself has confirmed on Instagram that he wants to go to Vasco after he has resolved his contract with Lazio:

“After the many comments I received these days, I decided to make a statement so that you can understand the situation. I received a proposal from Vasco da Gama but, unfortunately, at the moment we did not define my transfer to the club due to lack of time. The transfer window is closing and I should resolve my situation with Lazio. I need time to do it. I respect Vasco a lot, without doubt one of the giants of our football. Who would not want to wear that shirt? It would be an honor, a privilege. Thank you so much for the messages sent, I hope to meet you one day! A hug.”

COMUNICADO Fala, torcida vascaína! Depois de muitos comentários que recebi nos últimos dias, resolvi fazer um comunicado para vocês entenderem a situação. Recebi uma proposta do Vasco, mas, infelizmente, não definimos esta minha transferência para o clube neste momento por falta de tempo. A janela está fechando e eu teria que resolver a minha situação na Lazio. Preciso de tempo para fazer isso. Respeito muito o Vasco, sem dúvida, um dos gigantes do nosso futebol. Quem não gostaria de vestir essa camisa? Seria uma honra, um privilégio. Agradeço muito às mensagens que recebi e espero um dia encontrá-los! Grande abraço!
