A club and the 37-year-old defender Maicon are in advanced talks to extend the player's stay until 2026. Maicon, who is currently on loan from Vasco, has a contract with Coritiba that is tied to clauses dependent on goals achieved in 2025, with promotion to Série A being one of them. The extension is facilitated because Maicon's contract with the Carioca club concludes at the end of 2025.

Maicon, a 36-year-old defender who played for Vasco da Gama in 2024, has joined Coritiba for the Serie B of the Brazilian Championship. Coritiba announced his arrival on January 9, 2025, via social media. Maicon has already met his new teammates and started training with the team.

Maicon is expected to join Coritiba for the upcoming season as part of Vasco's player transfers. His move to Coritiba comes as Vasco looks to strengthen its squad by bringing in new talents like Lucas Oliveira and Lucas Freitas, while also seeing departures such as Leo Pelé to Athletico-PR. Maicon's transfer is part of these strategic changes aimed at balancing the team's roster for the new season.
