In spite of his high price and the problems to free mass salarial, the directive of the FC Barcelona trusts to close in summer the signing of Vitor Roque, star of Brazil in the last Sudamericano Sub-20 contested in January in Colombia. The '9' aims like the ideal relief for Robert Lewandowski thanks to his power and smell goleador, which has evidenciado with Ahtletico Paranaense from 2022 before reaching the majority of age.

Champion sudamericano with the 'canarinha' and runner-up of America with the 'Furacãor', the forward has begun the year marking 3 goals in 4 parties in the Championship Paranaense, with which follows justifying his value. In spite of the interest of several European clubs, the group 'rojinegro' has left clear that, for the moment, has not arrived any offer that satisfy the requirements of the directive and the '9' neither has given green light to negotiate.

Vitor Roque Wants to emulate to Raphinha

In this sense, the Italian journalist Matteo Moretto ensured in 'Relief' that Roque pretends to follow in its footsteps Raphinha to force his sale to the Barça. The Brazilian extreme had upper economic offers on the table, but his insistence for playing in Barcelona forced to the Leeds United to accept the offer blaugrana (58 million euros) in spite of that Chelsea was had to pay until 70 'kilos' by his traspaso.

The same pretends to do 'Tigrinho', knowing that the 60 'kilos' that asks the Athletico Paranaense (35M€ fixed more 25 extras in variables) are too much for a Barça very engaged with the Fair Playfinancial . In fact, the Brazilian group already refused the first offer culé by 25 million euros, ensuring that the less than would accept would be 50 'kilos' by the 85 % of his sportive rights.

The Athletico Paranaense will not yield so easy

Further that the contacts with André Cury, representative of Vitor Roque, have left good feelings, the FC Barcelona has clear that the Paranaense will not go down his economic pretences easily. "There is a career by Vitor Roque. Already we have received calls and offers, but have not arrived to what ask", said does a pair of weeks Mário Celso Petraglia, president of the 'Furacãor', to the Brazilian portal 'Globoesporte'.

In fact, the Athletico has foreseen to avoid that the forward of 18 years travel to Spain to turns it of three friendly that the Sub-20 of Brazil will contest between the days 15 and 27 April, a posture to which also would join Palmeiras, avoiding the trip of the flamante signing of the Real Madrid, Endrick. Both clubs want to have his stars for the beginning of the Glass Libertadores and the Brasileirao, by which consider that an international trip to these heights of the calendar can be riesgoso. The Barça expected to take advantage of the presence of Roque in the country to sustain a 'summit', but it will be necessary to expect to the summer for this.
