Vasco da Gama has officially announced the signing of 24-year-old Argentine midfielder Alan Lescano from Argentinos Juniors. The player has signed a contract that runs until December 2029, marking him as the fifth reinforcement for the club during this transfer window.

While previous reports estimated the deal's total valuation at approximately US$ 9 million (including bonuses), the official announcement values the transfer at approximately US$ 7 million (roughly R$ 36 million). Lescano, a creative midfielder who previously played for Gimnasia La Plata, joins the squad as the club attempts to improve its standing in the Campeonato Brasileiro, where it currently sits in 17th place and is fighting to avoid relegation.

Lescano is expected to wear the number 22 shirt. During his official presentation, he noted his versatility, stating that while he can play as a central or defensive midfielder, he is “most comfortable in an attacking midfield role.” The club’s scouting department highlighted his proficiency in long-distance shooting and his ability to arrive in the opponent’s area as key assets.

Lescano, who was given his professional debut by Diego Maradona at Gimnasia, has already been regularized with the CBF. He could potentially debut as early as this Saturday in the match against Grêmio.
