Vitor Roque has increased his value to €53.2 million, according to the Football CIES Observatory, after reviving his career in Brazil with Palmeiras. The latest news from FC Barcelona assures that the club, which retains economic rights over a future sale, is attentive to a possible operation that could bring new income to the Blaugrana coffers.

The 21-year-old forward left Barça in February 2025 after a period marked by a lack of continuity. Palmeiras paid €25.5 million fixed plus €5 million in variables for 80% of his rights, while the Catalan side retained a share for a future sale.

Vitor Roque multiplies his value in Brazil once again

The return of Vitor Roque to Brazil has completely changed his sports situation. Palmeiras currently values his performance at 91 matches and 29 goals, achievements that have allowed the forward to regain prominence after his time in Spain.

The CIES now ranks him as the second most valuable player in the Brasileirão, with an estimation of €53.2 million. Only his teammate, José Manuel 'Flaco' López, is valued higher at €53.9 million.

This figure also reflects his valuation's evolution. Transfermarkt valued him around €20 million upon his return to Brazilian football, whereas currently, his price on the portal reaches €38 million.

The contrast with his time at FC Barcelona is significant. The Catalan club signed Roque from Athletico Paranaense for €30 million fixed plus up to €31 million in variables, but his participation was very limited.

He played 16 matches with the Barcelona first team and scored two goals. Subsequently, he was loaned to Real Betis, where he accumulated 33 games and seven goals before temporarily returning to Barcelona to conclude his definitive sale.

FC Barcelona retains a share in a future operation

Vitor Roque's departure did not completely sever the economic relationship between both parties. Barça transferred to Palmeiras 80% of the player's rights and kept a percentage related to a possible future sale.

According to the published terms, the share can reach 20% if Palmeiras sells the player for €30 million or more. If the operation's price is lower, the Blaugrana's participation will be reduced.

This scenario gains importance following the forward's increased value. A potential sale near the estimated €53.2 million by CIES could generate significant additional income for the Catalan club, although there is currently no negotiation open for his departure.

Sales are expected, and Vitor Roque could be a solution

The economic aspect also weighs within Barça's planning. The economic vice president, Ferran Olivé, recently acknowledged that the club would need to sell players before pursuing certain signings in the January market, despite forecasting a positive 'fair play' balance.

Therefore, the progress of Vitor Roque could become a future revenue stream without the need to part ways with a current squad member. The next step will depend on whether Palmeiras receives an offer for the forward and decides to negotiate his exit, a scenario where FC Barcelona would have a right to participate economically.
