Vitória de Guimarães financial restructuring
Overview
The VSC Movement, led by Viriato Sampaio, formally requested an independent economic-financial audit of Vitória Sport Clube – Futebol, SAD. The proposal sought to examine financing, player transfers, and financial relations for the period between July 1, 2022, and June 30, 2026.
Following these developments, the club announced an agreement with the V Sports fund to sell a 17% stake in its Sports Public Limited Company (SAD) for 3.8 million euros. This transaction is intended to restore V Sports’ stake to 46% and provide funds to reduce existing debt, which exceeded 85 million euros in total liabilities at the end of the 2025/26 season. The deal also includes a commitment from V Sports to invest an additional 1.8 million euros and develop a debt restructuring plan for between 20 and 30 million euros.
