To Roque pretend to put him a clause of exit of billion of euros, the same that have players like Pedri González, Gavi or Ronald Araújo, that is to say, the angular stones of the team and the big bets of face to the future.

The most likely is that the operation close during the next week. In fact, it has informed that the CEO of the Athletico Paranaense, Alexandre Mattos, will leave of turn to Brazil tomorrow, with the security that the agreement is cleared and will not change at all. The forecast is that firm the Thursday or Friday of the next week. Vitor Roque, finally, is culé.
