BREAKING NEWS: Barcelona 19-year-old forward Vitor Roque set for a swap deal with Manchester United loanee

This could be the beginning of the end for Vitor Roque’s dream move to Barcelona. The public comments made by his agent seeking more playing time have stoked suspicion that he may leave the team during the summer. Since joining the team in January, he has played a limited role.

It is possible that the Brazilian will have a large number of potential suitors during the upcoming summer, with Manchester United being one of the clubs that are interested in acquiring his talents.

As stated by Mundo Deportivo, Barcelona is currently open to the possibility of conducting a trade that would involve Vitor Roque and Mason Greenwood.

As a result of Greenwood’s impressive performance at Getafe, Barcelona views him as a possible solution. During the current season of La Liga, the Englishman has established himself as one of Getafe’s most accomplished players by scoring ten goals and providing six assists.

On the other hand, United prefers individual transfers, which may be a challenge.

By making it abundantly clear that a loan is not an option, Roque’s agent has added still another layer of complexity to the situation. Taking all into consideration, it appears that a permanent transfer could be the only way to move forward, which might coincide with Barcelona’s interest in Greenwood.

The future of Greenwood has been safeguarded by United by extending his contract until 2026, which is expected to ensure a larger transfer fee. This comes at a time when transfer rumors are circulating.

It is interesting to note that Joan Laporta, the president of Barcelona, enquired about Greenwood with the president of Getafe; nonetheless, the sporting director of the Blaugrana does not appear to be convinced.

Uncertainty persists in the scenario. A window of opportunity has opened for Barcelona to address their attacking requirements as a result of Roque’s dissatisfaction and United’s interest in him. On the other hand, the fact that United prefers separate deals and that Roque’s agent feels strongly against loans could make things more complicated.

One further element that should be taken into consideration is Greenwood’s history of controversy. Additionally, the charges of sexual assault that have been made against the forward in the past will not sit well with Barcelona supporters or the board, which means that the club will need to search for other possibilities in the market.
