Cassio replaces foreign player Werick Caetano, who quietly left the club after just three months.
Caetano scored three goals in nine matches but departed following a loan spell from Bulgarian club Beroe Stara Zagora, where his contract runs through June 2026.
Currently, Da Nang FC have three foreign players: center-backs Rangel Merlon and Cassio Scheid, and center-forward Yuri Mamute.
Mamute has faced criticism from fans after missing two penalties and failing to score any goals this season.
