Has a decision been made? Roque has not trained with Barcelona for two days in a row
Changes in Vitor Roque's future are expected before the end of the summer transfer window. The young Brazilian, who joined Barcelona from Athletico Paranaense in January, seems not to fit into Xavi's plans for the 2024-25 season and has not yet been registered for the La Liga season, which suggests a possible departure.
Although questions about his future arose over the summer, the club currently does not plan to sell him and is considering a loan, preferably to another La Liga team. Mundo Deportivo reports that uncertainty surrounding Roque will remain until the transfer window closes. He is still in Barcelona, but his chances of playing in the Joan Gamper Trophy on Monday seem very slim. It is reported that he was sent home from training two days in a row due to a fever.
Roque's first seven months in Catalonia have been challenging, but he hopes for a better outcome in the upcoming season, whether at Barcelona or with another Spanish club.
