La Liga
Sporting Lisbon has taken an important step in their attempt to strengthen their attack by approaching FC Barcelona to negotiate the possible signing of Vítor Roque. The young Brazilian forward, who arrived at the Catalan club with high expectations last season, has seen his role in the team diminish significantly.
Under the leadership of Hansi Flick and Pau Vitor's outstanding performance during preseason, Roque has been excluded from the immediate plans of the coach, which has opened the door to a possible departure.
Roque's future at Barcelona seems uncertain, and Sporting has decided to take advantage of this situation to try to add him to their squad. Although Everton has also shown interest, the English club has not formalized a concrete offer, leaving the path clear for Sporting to advance in negotiations with Barça. The Portuguese team sees Roque as an opportunity to bolster their forward line and hopes to finalize his signing before the end of the summer transfer window.
Barcelona sets Vitor Roque's transfer price
Barcelona has set a transfer price ranging between 30 and 35 million euros, a figure that Sporting may be willing to negotiate to secure one of the most promising forwards of his generation. Although other interested parties like Bournemouth and Al Hilal have emerged, Sporting appears to be taking the lead in the negotiations.
The coming weeks will be crucial in determining Vítor Roque's destination, as he seeks a team that can offer him the continuity he has not found at Barcelona. Deco, who has been leading the talks, has not yet made a final decision, but everything indicates that Sporting is close to reaching an agreement with the Catalan club.
