Finally, Vitor Roque, the Brazilian striker, has a new destination and everything is set; he will play next season defending the colours of Real Betis. FC Barcelona has already made the decision that the Brazilian player will go to the Sevilla team and has completely ruled out what was the important purchase proposal that they had on the table from Sporting Lisbon of Portugal, who had the clear mission of wanting to sign the player.

Once the decision was made, the two clubs are finalizing the details of the new contract that Vitor Roque will have for this new Spanish soccer campaign.

The power to define the present and part of the future of Vitor Roque It was a rather deep debate in the upper echelons of the Barcelona Sporting Directorate. On the one hand, there was the option of putting an end to his time as a player for FC Barcelona, ​​a sale was what made the most sense, and this intensified once Sporting Lisbon from Portugal appeared, who were willing to buy the striker.

Sporting had made a significant offer, although it did not arrive to the 30 million that the Catalan team had previously paid Athletico Paranaense a year ago.

Barcelona has full confidence in Roque

But despite this, the decision to choose Real Betis It has not been fundamental for the economic part. The Catalan club continues to trust in the player, his talent, his level and his development. Despite the fact that last season was quite frustrating for the Brazilian striker, they consider that he has a lot of potential to be a first team player for FC Barcelona. It is for this reason that they did not want to lose control at all over Vitor Roque, something that would have happened if they finally accepted Sporting’s offer.

It must be remembered that Barcelona will be able to have control over the player and, especially, to see how his adaptation to the Spanish League evolves. And, above all, he will be able to do so in a much calmer environment, less media-driven than the one he experienced last season at the Catalan club, where he became the focus of many accusations, criticisms, lawsuits and so on.

Until when will the session be?

Both FC Barcelona and Real Betisare currently negotiating the final details of Vitor Roque’s new contract. Apparently the loan is without an option to buy and until 2025.
