Brazilian forward Vitor Roque has returned to training early, cutting his summer break short in an effort to impress manager Hansi Flick and secure his future with the team. However, despite Roque’s dedication, there is significant interest in him from clubs across Europe.
Barcelona may sell him before the end of the month to boost their financial situation. Atletico Madrid is interested in including Roque in a deal for Joao Felix, while Porto wants to purchase him outright. Fiorentina has shown interest in acquiring him permanently.
Napoli has also expressed interest in Roque, either through a loan or transfer deal, depending on Barcelona’s response. Some believe letting Roque go would not reflect well on the club, but others argue that reallocating the €30 million spent on him could benefit Barcelona given their financial challenges. The situation surrounding Roque’s future at Barcelona remains uncertain as preseason approaches.
