On 24 February 2022, the Russian invasion of Ukraine began, with the airports based in the provinces that were close to Ukraine were ordered closed until 2 March, including Platov International Airport in Rostov-on-Don. On 7 March 2022, FIFA announced that foreign players in Russia would be able to unilaterally suspend their contracts with their clubs until 30 June 2022 and sign with a club outside of Russia until 30 June 2022. Bastos made use of the rule alongside fellow Rostov teammates Dennis Hadžikadunić, Armin Gigović, Pontus Almqvist and Magnus Nordengen Knudsen, all of whom left on special leave for various European clubs. Bastos had reached an agreement with Bundesliga club Arminia Bielefeld. However, on 17 March 2022, the German Football Association (DFB) announced that the transfer window in Germany would not be re-opened and players from the Russian and Ukrainian leagues would not be allowed to be registered in official national competitions to "maintain the sporting integrity of the competitions", despite FIFA giving permission to do so.
Despite his transfer being blocked by the DFB, Bastos suspension was upheld and he would not make another appearance for Rostov during the 2021–22 season.
