Vitor Roque’s time at FC Barcelona appears to be coming to a close, just seven months after his move from Athletico Paranaense. The club was reportedly in talks with Saudi Arabia’s Al Hilal about a potential transfer deal.
However, the 19-year-old Brazilian player has turned down the offer from the Middle Eastern club, per Fabrizio Romano leading Barcelona to consider other possibilities.
Now according to SPORT, Serie A side Lazio is expressing keen interest in securing Roque’s services this summer. It’s said that the Brazilian is open to the idea of joining the Italian club.
Lazio seems ready to make a significant investment in the promising young forward, with an offer of €20 million for 50% of his rights. They reportedly see great potential in Roque and believe that his future success could lead to mutually beneficial gains for both Lazio and Barcelona.
