Vasco had shown interest in acquiring the 26-year-old Brazilian centre-back Joaquim from Tigres, Mexico. Unfortunately, Joaquim sustained a head injury during a match against Mazatlán, which resulted in his hospitalization. With the concussion protocol in place and the limited time remaining in the transfer window, Vasco believes the transfer is unlikely to proceed. Joaquim's injury happened when he collided with Gúzman, and he is currently being monitored in the hospital. Joaquim shared on social media that his condition is stable, although he continues to adhere to medical advice and recovery protocols. This incident has considerably affected Vasco's strategy, as they had hoped to finalize his transfer before the window's closure. The defender's contract with Tigres remains valid until June 2027, and as per Transfermarkt, his market value is €6.00m.
