Vitor Roque has taken a new step that confirms his departure from FC Barcelona. The Brazilian changed the profile photo that he had on his Instagram account in which he was wearing the Blaugrana shirt for one in which he appears in Brazil's clothing. Likewise, he has deleted the Catalan club's username from his biography, leaving only his wife tagged and a phrase in Portuguese that reads "Deus takes care of me!"("God takes care of me!").

In this way, it is evident that his transfer to Real Betis is practically finalized. The forward is one step away from closing his departure for the green and white team and the only thing left to do is for the Andalusians to finish outlining the details of the agreement with the Barça institution. After observing that under Flick's orders he will not have opportunities either, 'Tigrinho' asked to leave the team and in recent weeks efforts have accelerated to seek a beneficial exit for both parties.

At Can Barça they had other proposals on the table to obtain the South American's signing, such as those of Sporting Lisbon or Everton, who were willing to approach the 30 million euros demanded by the Catalans, or that of Porto, who also He wanted a transfer. However, the footballer ended up opting for the offer from the Betis, whose project is the most attractive for a striker who hopes to claim his place in the European elite.

Manu Fajardo, sports director of Real Betis, explained that "from the utmost discretion and working in silence we have always tried to position ourselves in this type of profiles. We have played our weapons, not only with Vitor, but also with other players who have arrived to the entity. We have made him see what it would be like to come to Betis for his career, both for the club and for the fans", revealing the arguments that convinced the player.

A 'golden' opportunity

In the 2023-24 League, Roque took part in 14 games, but barely totaled 319 minutes and only scored 2 goals. In the Copa del Rey he played 34 more minutes, spread over 2 games, without contributing any more goals. Neither in the Spanish Super Cup nor in the Champions League did he have any role. Therefore, his new adventure at the Benito Villamarín represents a truly 'golden' opportunity to demonstrate his worth on the big stages, and Vitor hopes to take advantage of it.
