Vasco is interested in signing defender Léo Duarte , currently with İstanbul Başakşehir in Turkey, to bolster its defense for the remainder of the season . The information was released by the Canak Vasco portal, in partnership with VDG-Cast.


BUSINESS IS CONSIDERED DIFFICULT


Despite the interest, negotiations are seen as difficult. Léo Duarte is a regular starter and a key player for the Turkish club, making a quick release unlikely. The defender has already played 174 matches for Başakşehir, scoring two goals and providing four assists.


Vasco is also monitoring other defensive players, including Colombian Carlos Cuesta. The board is looking to expand its options to address one of the main needs of Fernando Diniz's squad : the arrival of an experienced defender.

PASSAGE THROUGH FLAMENGO


Revealed in Flamengo 's youth ranks, Léo Duarte left the club in 2019. During his time playing for Rubro-Negro, he won two Campeonato Carioca titles (2017 and 2019) . The defender worked for about a month with Jorge Jesus before being sold to Milan (ITA), his first European club.

In Europe, he failed to establish himself at Milan and was loaned to İstanbul Başakşehir, who later acquired his rights permanently . He's currently enjoying a good run of form in Turkish football, which makes Vasco's move difficult.
