Betis decides the future of Vitor Roque, Barça and Sporting

He start of Vitor Roque’s season In his first year at Betis Balompie he shows promise but is not very effective. He has four goals to his name, two in LALIGA EA Sports and two more in the Copa del Rey, but there are also a few mistakes in front of goal that he will surely correct.

FC Barcelona made a big bet on him despite his youth – they paid Alético Paranaense €40 million for the player, now 19 years old – but six months later they loaned him to Betis, and the idea of ​​the Barça club “is to get him a good transfer. or use it to make some operation cheaper. Actually, The transfer to Club Verdiblanco includes the option of purchasing.which can be implemented in each of the two seasons during which the loan can last.

However, in Portugal in particular, the prestigious newspaper To the ballreports that Deco, sporting director of the Blaugrana, considers Vitor Roque as a possible bargaining chip with Sporting. Although he scores a lot of goals, Robert Lewandowski doesn’t have many years left in the elite after turning 36 in August. Barcelona are eyeing Victor DieukeresSwedish striker for the Lisbon national team, who has scored as many as 20 goals this season, 16 of them in the Portuguese championship.

However, Betis have something to say about this possible operation, as He has the right to decide what to do with Vitor Roque before the end of the season.. That is, in June 2025, the Heliopolitan club will have the right to decide whether to extend the loan, exercise the option to purchase or, conversely, the loan is terminated and Vitor Roque returns to FC Barcelona. If the transfer had been extended for another year, the final decision would have been made in 2026.

The call option will have different prices if it is exercised in 2025 or 2026. Thus, from the initial 25 million for 80% of the player’s transfer, it will increase to 27.5 next year for the same percentage. In addition, it should be remembered that the Brazilian striker has already rejected an offer from the Lisbon club, always preferring a move to Betis.

Thus, in a three-way operation that Barça would propose to Portuguese Sporting, everything would depend on the decision of Betis, who would have the final say on the player’s future.
