Barcelona has the opportunity to take advantage of Vitor Roque

Barcelona have been harshly criticized for their agreement to bring in Vitor Roque, with limited resources and in need of a new boost, sporting director Deco pulled the trigger on a deal to bring Roque to the club for €30 million, plus €31 million. of euros in variables with Atlético. Paranaense. However, the narrative will change if they can make a profit from the 19-year-old striker.

It seems unlikely that Roque will comply with the variables that appear in the initial agreement, with no glimpse of a future for him in Catalonia. This summer, the teenage forward moved on loan to Real Betis, and Los Verdiblancos loaned Roque and secured 20% of his rights, with the possibility of earning that 80% in exchange for an additional 25 million euros.

However, Brazilian giants Palmeiras remain interested in Roque and have just received €40 million from Manchester City in exchange for centre-back Vitor Reis. They made a move at the beginning of January, but it seems that it has fallen on deaf ears for a Roque determined to succeed in Europe. Sport reveals that Palmeiras is willing to pay 27 million euros for 80% of Roque’s rights, an operation that would mean a profit of 3 million euros for the Blaugrana.

So far, O Verdao has not gotten the green light from Roque and would also need the approval of Betis for a winter move. However, they will continue their efforts in this transfer window and return with a new approach in the summer as well.

This season, Roque has once again shown promise, but also a lack of precision in front of goal, missing a key opportunity and scoring a penalty on his return to the Estadi Olimpic Lluis Companys against Barcelona. As a starter in most of Manuel Pellegrini’s games, Roque has 7 goals and 2 assists in his 27 appearances this year at Benito Villamarín.
