La Liga
Lazio is in full search for an offensive reinforcement for the upcoming season. As confirmed by the sports director Angelo Fabiani in a recent interview with the club's official radio, the priority is to find a young and talented player who can bring creativity and dynamism to the attacking midfield. After ruling out the option of signing James Rodríguez, the Roman club has now shifted its focus to Vitor Roque, a promising Brazilian forward born in 2005, currently under contract with Barcelona.
Vitor Roque, who excelled at Athletico Paranaense before joining Barcelona, is considered one of the brightest talents of his generation. However, Barcelona's financial situation and La Liga's financial fair play restrictions have prevented the young footballer from being registered in the Catalan club's first team. This has created an opportunity for Lazio, which aims to negotiate a loan with an option to buy to add the Brazilian to its ranks.

As reported by 'Calciomercato,' Lazio's president Claudio Lotito has shown great interest in Roque, emphasizing that the 2005 generation is key to the club's strategy. Although Barcelona is reluctant to let the player go, Lazio is exploring a similar formula to the one proposed to Manchester United for Mason Greenwood: a permanent loan for an amount between 20 and 25 million euros, with 50% of the future resale secured for Barcelona.
In addition to Vitor Roque, Lazio is also closely monitoring other young talents such as Armand Laurienté, Jobe Bellingham, and Matías Fernández-Pardo. Sports director Fabiani continues to work on various fronts to find the ideal reinforcement that complements Marco Baroni's team. The arrival of a player of Vitor Roque's caliber could be a key move for the club's future, solidifying its position in Serie A and strengthening its project of developing young talents.
