Vitor Roque's resurgence in Brazil continues apace. Since returning to Palmeiras, 'Tigrinho' has once again captured the attention of European football, with Brazilian media linking him to several Premier League clubs. FC Barcelona remains highly attentive to this potential opportunity.

Brazilian outlet 'Radio Tupi' reports that Palmeiras has valued the 20-year-old forward at €50 million. The 'Verdao' believes that despite his struggles at Barca, Vitor Roque remains an attractive prospect due to his age, performance, and potential for future appreciation. Since rejoining the Paulista club, he has scored 20 goals in 56 appearances across all competitions.

'Tigrinho' holds a contract with Palmeiras until December 2029. For now, the Brazilian club has no intention of sanctioning his transfer before the summer window. They anticipate he will continue his strong performances and prove crucial during the first half of the season, strengthening their negotiating position later. There is no rush, and the €50 million valuation serves as a starting price, potentially increasing with performance-related bonuses.

The Brazilian report names Chelsea, Tottenham, and Manchester United among the interested clubs. The Spurs could pursue Vitor Roque should Richarlison depart, creating space for a mobile, young centre-forward like him. Meanwhile, Barca remains a keenly interested party in any potential deal.

Spanish newspaper 'Marca' confirms that FC Barcelona secured a 20% sell-on clause in his transfer to Palmeiras. This means that Barca, who already received €25 million for his departure in February 2025, could fully recoup their initial investment if Vitor Roque moves for the €50 million valuation set by the 'Verdao'.
