Argentine midfielder Leandro Luis Desabato will be playing for Brazilian football club Vasco da Gama from 2018 season, as the South American club want to bolster their squad.
Desabato will be tied to Vasco for two years after the outfit came to financial terms with his former club Velez Sarsfield.
"I am really excited about being given the chance to play for Vasco," the 27-year-old said in a video posted by the Brazilian club on Twitter.
