Barcelona is trying hard to get Vitor Roque to another team, but recent events have made it harder for them to do so.
A new report from SPORT says that the deal with Serie A club Lazio has run into a big problem. Even though Lazio is ready to talk, they haven’t been able to meet Barcelona’s demands for the young forward.
The deal that Roque’s agents and Lazio were talking about is now in danger, especially since Barcelona turned down Lazio’s offer because they are waiting for a better one in the weeks to come.
What did Lazio have to offer?
Lazio offered to pay €20 million for half of Roque’s transfer fee. The other half would be due when the player was sold in the future.
But Barcelona turned down this offer because they think Roque is worth €40 million for a full move. The talks between Lazio and the buyer have broken down because they can’t meet this price.

Barcelona is looking into other choices for now. Al Hilal, a club in Saudi Arabia, is willing to pay the €40 million asking price and give extra bonuses that could bring the total amount to more than €40 million.
Even though this deal is good for the economy, Roque and his representatives don’t want to move to Saudi Arabia, even though the money is good.
Barcelona really wants this deal to go through.
Al Hilal’s offer is still being considered, and Barcelona plans to press the issue once Roque gets back from the team’s tour of the United States.
Getting this move would help Barcelona’s finances a lot. They would be able to get their money back and maybe even make a profit on a player that coach Hansi Flick doesn’t want.
Lazio’s deal is more appealing to Roque because he has said he wants to stay in Europe. Barcelona has also been offered loan deals for Roque, but they are currently focusing on making a permanent sell.
Roque has been asked to go on loan by clubs like FC Porto and Real Betis. These deals, on the other hand, would only cover one season and come with a buyout clause that Barcelona does not want to accept at this time.
