According to Globo.com, Vasco rejected approaches from Grêmio for Brazilian right-back Paulo Henrique, as the club is not interested in advancing talks. Vasco is currently unwilling to negotiate any of its starters and would only consider selling the 29-year-old for what it considers an irrefutable offer, given he is on the radar of the Brazilian national team. Paulo Henrique received a good proposal from the club from Rio Grande do Sul but did not pursue the conversations out of respect for Vasco's decision. The player has also received inquiries from other clubs in Brazil and from abroad since the end of last year, but none have progressed. Paulo Henrique joined Vasco in January 2024, and his contract is valid until December 2027. He has 2 caps and 1 goal for Brazil, and his current Transfermarkt market value is €6.00m. In the 2025/2026 season, he has made 4 appearances in the Campeonato Carioca and 1 in Série A.
