According to Globo.com, Vasco initiated talks with Nelson Deossa during the group stage of the World Cup. Negotiations had progressed, but a court order that removed president Pedrinho from football operations delayed the conclusion. Deossa participated in Real Betis' preseason, scoring in three out of four friendly matches, and coach Maurício Pellegrini informed the club's board that he would only allow Deossa to leave if another option was secured. Deossa had previously agreed on salary terms and showed a willingness to play for Vasco during the World Cup. After strong preseason performances, he is now considering staying in Europe. Vasco's director of football, Admar Lopes, considered traveling to Spain for in-person negotiations, but this did not happen. While Vasco had believed Betis would accept the proposal and release Deossa, the club now views the transfer as difficult to complete.

According to Mundo Deportivo, the issues that blocked Nelson Deossa's transfer to Vasco de Gama may be resolved next week, and the move could be finalized under the conditions that were agreed upon weeks ago. Real Betis had reached an agreement for the transfer, but it was stopped due to a judicial intervention at the carioca club and a lack of payment guarantees. The report states that the judicial intervention has now been revoked and the previous management, which is led by ex-footballer Pedrinho, has regained control. When the sale process stopped, businessmen who were to guarantee the 11 million euros payment to Real Betis were prevented from doing so, which resulted in Real Betis not receiving the required bank guarantees. As a result, the transfer did not happen and Deossa started pre-season with Real Betis. It is noted that only the payment guarantees were missing for the deal to be completed.
