Barcelona seeks placement for Vitor Roque: Brazilian says no to Saudi Arabia

Barcelona’s economic situation is not the rosiest. To secure at least one between Nico Williams and Dani Olmo, they need to make room in the forward department and the suspect to leave has already been identified. From Catalonia, in fact, as reported Sportthey say that the name in question is that of Victor Roque.

The Brazilian is valued at 40 million: with that amount, he can leave Barcelona 6 months after his arrival. In this case, it would be a real flop, given the expectations regarding the 2005-born player when he arrived from Athletico Paranaense in January 2024. In the second part of the season, in fact, he scored just 2 goals in 16 games between La Liga and Copa del Rey. Clearly, he would need more time to settle in, but the new coach Flick does not consider him essential. Faced with an adequate offer, he can therefore leave to try to achieve the objectives set.

The Catalan newspaper writes that, while Barcelona is looking for a place for him, the player has already rejected an offer from Saudi Arabia. Neither he nor his entourage are even considering the possibility of leaving Europe and flying to the Saudi Pro League, at least for the moment. Other solutions are therefore being studied.
