According to Mundo Deportivo, Barcelona are already making serious advances in their pursuit of Athletico Paranaense striker Vitor Roque in the summer transfer window.
The 17-year-old Brazilian prodigy has been identified as one of the key targets for the summer transfer window at Camp Nou as they look to bring in a forward to provide some relief to Robert Lewandowski.
Reports earlier today suggested that the teenage sensation also wants to join Barcelona and the same information is reaffirmed by MD, who also state that despite interest from the likes of Chelsea, West Ham United, and PSG, Vitor Roque is leaning towards the Blaugrana.
Deco, Barça’s transfer adviser, has been endorsing the signing of the Athletico striker, who is currently representing the Brazil U-20 side at the South American U-20 Championship in Colombia.
Following Deco’s recommendation, Barcelona’s scouts have carried out a thorough assessment of Vitor Roque and believe that he has great potential and projection.
Furthermore, the 17-year-old’s agent, Andre Cury, is a former employee of Barça and sees the club as the ideal project for the teenager to continue his development and flourish.
Vitor Roque could cost Barcelona around €35-40 million, with the report stating that his agent has agreed with Athletico Paranaense that the payment can be made in three separate instalments of €10 million each in 2023, 2024, and 2025, plus the variables which could range between €5-10 million.
With all these details already on the table, the report states that Barcelona are now working on ways to sign the striker in the summer while not breaching La Liga’s Financial Fair Play regulations.
It is no secret that the Blaugrana’s financial situation is far from ideal due to which La Liga has placed several limitations and restrictions on how they can operate in the market.
And Barcelona are working on finding a way to adhere to those Fair Play conditions set by La Liga and sign Vitor Roque, who turns 18 next month, come summer.
