Danilo, who is nearing the completion of a six-year contract with Juventus, is attracting significant interest from Vasco da Gama. He is evaluating his options for June 2025, contemplating a return to Brazilian football 13 years after leaving. Vasco da Gama has shown a strong desire to secure his signature, and he is reportedly in communication with the club from the Brasileirão. Globo Esporte has reported that he will be eligible to sign a pre-contract in January. The previous year, Vasco had expressed a desire to acquire the former FC Porto player, but he opted to remain as captain of the team managed by Thiago Motta for an additional year.

According to Globo, Vasco da Gama is engaged in negotiations to pursue the signing of Danilo, who is the captain of Brazil and Juventus. The 33-year-old right-back is currently under contract with Juventus until June of the following year. It is reported that Danilo is keen to continue his career on the field, and Vasco's squad is currently lacking a player for the right-back position. Starting from January, he will have the option to sign a pre-contract with any team, having spent 13 seasons playing in Europe.
