Coutinho thought about a farewell at Vasco, but was only contacted by other Brazilian clubs besides Santos

Before agreeing to play for Santos in 2025, Philippe Coutinho received offers from several Brazilian clubs over the past six months, a period during which he decided to pause his career to focus on mental health. Vasco, the club where he went through a turbulent time at the start of the season, did not contact him again, which increased the frustration of the 34-year-old player. Despite suffering from some behaviors he was subjected to at São Januário, Coutinho maintained his affection for the club and even considered a farewell. His return to football this year came through Santos, driven by his friendship with Neymar.
