Man Utd, Chelsea, Spurs eye unsettled Vitor Roque
The summer transfer window won't reopen in Europe for a while yet, but there are plenty of moves in the works and gossip is swirling around. Transfer Talk brings you all the latest buzz on rumours, comings, goings and, of course, done deals!
Multiple clubs are keeping close tabs on the situation Barcelona forward Vitor Roque, according to AS. Three Premier League clubs are reported to be keen on him, with Manchester United, Chelsea, and Tottenham Hotspur all linked, while there is also interest in Serie A from Napoli.
Roque, 19, joined Barça for an initial €31 million from Athletico Paranaense in January but has made just two league starts since and, while the Blaugrana would prefer to send him out on loan to gain more experience, the Brazil youth international's representatives have put pressure on the club to clarify his future.
"Vitor Roque should have more minutes and no one understands why he's not getting them," Roque's agent Andre Cury said last week.
"In the 300 minutes he has played, he has scored two goals, which is possibly the best rate in the team. Xavi has given chances to Fermín [López], Pau Cubarsí and Lamine Yamal, but not to Vitor Roque. I can't explain it."
A meeting is set to be held "in the coming weeks" amid hopes of finding a resolution with Barcelona sporting director Deco, who played a key role in bringing Roque to the club.
