I remember a few years ago that Cobi Jones signed with brazilian club Vasco da Gama but I really don't know how what happened to him there since I believe he didn't have many opportunities to play. Was he injuried? Benched? How long did he say? It sure wasn't a good deal for him. Vasco da Gama's boss Eurico Miranda is like Don Corleone in the arena of brazilian football.
I think they sent him on loan to another South American club. He stayed there for less than a year. may be less than 6 months.
he never once took the field for them.They had him playing as a full-back, a position he has never, to my knowledge, played before. Also, in fairness, he is much better now than he was then.
