Following the recent reports about the price Chelsea are paying for Andrey Santos, Vasco da Gama fans are quite upset.

Since an initial story about the sale claimed the Blues were spending €40m on the transfer, that was a sign of a good deal. The problem is that the following stories were quite different, with the last of them saying the sale was made for an initial amount of €15m.

With over 3.4m followers on Twitch, journalist and streamer Casimiro can definitely express how a Vasco fan feels about that sale. And speaking of the club’s recent business, he referred to Andrey’s move to Chelsea as some kind of ‘donation’ the Rio de Janeiro club are making to the Blues, given how ridiculous he considers that price to be.

“Vasco donated him, right? Vasco are millionaire, they donated Andrey to Chelsea in a beautiful act, an emotional gesture… Vasco, football’s new rich, donated an athlete to Chelsea. Absurd humility,” said Casimiro.

According to the most recent reports from Brazil, the agreement between Vasco and Chelsea is done, and the clubs are only waiting for Andrey Santos to have his medicals before they make the move official. Besides the initial €15m, the deal is set to include another €8m in performance bonuses.
