Juventus is thinking about signing Vitor Roque to reinforce its squad. After receiving few chances from Xavi, the Brazilian striker is in an undefined situation at Barcelona, and the Italian club is considering asking for a loan. The information was initially published by Gazzetta dello Sport.
Firstly, Juventus wants to resolve the situation with its current attackers. Moise Kean is expected to change teams, while Polish Arek Milik will undergo meniscus surgery. The Italian club wants to renew Federico Chiesa, one of its main players, or trade him and make room in the squad for new signings.
Barcelona is still analyzing whether Vitor Roque’s salary margin will be approved. Due to La Liga’s financial fair play, he was only able to play in the last six months because he replaced the injured Gavi on the roster. With the return of the Spanish midfielder, the Catalan team must calculate whether they will be able to register the two athletes without violating financial rules.
After standing out wearing the Athletico-PR shirt, Vitor Roque has been at Barcelona since January this year. Under coach Xavi, who has since left the club, the 19-year-old Brazilian striker played just 353 minutes in 16 games, in which he scored two goals and made no assists.
