The transfer market is set to be hectic until August 30. A delegation from Betis travelled to Barcelona on Monday to negotiate the signing of Barça striker Vitor Roque. Betis are seeking a loan with an option to buy the young Brazilian forward, who is only 19 years old. The green and white club has already signed its latest signing, also Brazilian, defender Natan, who could make his debut on Thursday in the Conference League qualifiers.
A delegation landed in Barcelona composed of Ramón Alarcón, CEO of the Verdiblancos, Manu Fajardo, the sports director, and Joaquin Sancheza collaborator in that sporting area. His presence could help convince the player that Betis is the ideal place to relaunch his career. Barcelona does not count on this player for whom they paid 30 million euros. Betis is negotiating with the Blaugrana club the formula to take the attacker who is only 19 years old. It could be a loan with an option to buy or co-ownership of the player.
He recently said about this footballer Rivaldothe 1999 Ballon d’Or winner, who “has to leave Barcelona”. He knows that “he is a young boy with a great future” and that “it makes no sense to stay at a club where he will not have opportunities or very few minutes”. “I hope he can show somewhere else that he is a great player,” he said, while indicating that one of the factors that prevented him from making a name for himself at Barça is that he left “mid-season in a difficult situation.”
