Barcelona not ready to pay €50 million to sign Vitor Roque

Arsenal’s target, 18-year-old Brazilian attacker Vitor Roque, is expected to cost Barcelona €50 million.

Barcelona won’t shell out €50 million to sign Vitor Roque, according to a report from the Spanish website SPORT.

Arsenal and numerous other Premier League teams are also interested in signing the 18-year-old Athletico Paranaense striker.

Also, Athletico-PR will ask for €50 million in exchange for giving up 85% of his rights.

After joining Athletico Paranaense, Vitor Roque has established himself as one of the top young strikers in the world.

The Brazilian wonderkid was a sensation during his youth career, but in the past year, he has significantly improved.

The 18-year-old also made his national team debut last month, breaking into the Brazilian squad.

The youthful player has a fantastic 2023 season to date, scoring four goals in just six games. Numerous prestigious teams have put their sights on Vitor Roque as a result of his development. And among his potential suitors are Barcelona and Arsenal.

Despite signing Robert Lewandowski last summer, Barcelona will attempt to establish a succession plan for him.

The seasoned Polish striker is still performing at his peak. He is far into his 30s and will not be a long-term answer, the Catalan giants realize. Hence, Vitor Roque has become one of Barcelona’s primary targets.

The 18-year-old is eager to sign with Barcelona as well, indicating that he is prepared to leave his mark at Camp Nou.

According to recent sources, Athletico Paranaense will demand €50 million in exchange for a surrender of 85% of his rights. Barcelona, though, will not pay the money, giving Arsenal an advantage in the race.

According to recent sources, the Arsenal are in a good position to sign the Brazilian prospect. Arsenal should be more eager to pay €50 million than Barcelona, even though the report does not include their attitude on matching the demand.

Arsenal’s interest in the youngster, though, is unexpected given that they recently acquired Gabriel Jesus.

Barcelona may be able to negotiate a lower price because Vitor Roque is eager to join the team. Nevertheless, if Arsenal were to offer €50 million to sign the player, the equation would significantly change.
