Vasco sign defender Robert Renan, former Corinthians player | OneFootball

This Monday, Vasco announced the hiring of defender Robert Renan, signing a bond valid until June 2026 and with a pre-set purchase option. The player arrives to reinforce the cruzmaltino team on loan from Zenit, from Russia.

“My expectation is immense. It's a dream of my family. Everyone is very happy. I will give my best. May we have many victories and titles,” said the defender.

Natural from Brasília, Robert Renan started his career in the Corinthians base, where he became a professional. Before his passage through Russian football, the player played for Internacional and Al-Shabab (Saudi Arabia).

Coach Fernando Diniz now has another option for the defensive sector, which includes Maurício Lemos, Lucas Freitas, and Lucas Oliveira.

Last Friday, the Brasília native arrived in Rio de Janeiro to undergo medical tests and sign the contract with Gigante da Colina. The defender is seen as a substitute for João Victor (sold to CSKA Moscow) and Luiz Gustavo (transferred to Bahia).
