It seems Barcelona is prepared to part ways with Vitor Roque entirely. The Blaugrana had invested €30 million in the player, hoping he would become Robert Lewandowski's successor, but things haven’t gone as planned.
Details: According to Sport, there’s no chance Roque will return to Barcelona after his loan at Real Betis. The Brazilian’s time with the Catalan giants is considered over, and he is no longer part of their plans.
Even if Roque continues to perform well at Betis, it won't change Barcelona's stance.
Reminder: Betis has the option to buy 80% of the Brazilian’s rights for €25 million at the end of this season or €27.5 million next summer. So far, Roque has scored five goals and provided one assist in 19 matches on loan.
