CALLED TO BE THE STARS OF LALIGA
Vitor Roque vs Endrick: The battle of the next 'cracks' of Barça and Madrid
FC Barcelona is very close to closing the agreement for the transfer of Vitor Roque, from Club Athletico Paranaense, and causes a debate for the future with the arrival of Endrick at Real Madrid, in 2024... Who will be more decisive in Spain?
So much FC Barcelona like Real Madrid have opted by the market sudamericano to reinforce his forwards, in conditions and distinct times. Vitor Roque And Endrick are called to step very strong in the European football and will do it like rival maxima, leading -if all goes out as it seems- the lines of attack of the two 'big' of Spain. This, in any case, to average term and with a lot of patience of by half... But what seems sure is that avivarán the Classical with 'samba' Brazilian.
To fault that firm the agreement and produce the official confirmation, Roque will join to the rows of the Barcelona picture by a mount that round the 45 million euros between fixed and variables. It is the big bet of the club to have a 'acting' to Robert Lewandowski and add gunpowder (and goals) to the forward. The only question, or doubt, is when will land in the City Condal: in July, to begin the season with complete normality, or in January of 2024, so that the club have margin to inscribe it. Everything will depend of the Fair Play financial.
In front, from the summer of the next year when it fulfil the majority of age, will have to Endrick. The Real Madrid arrived during the month of December of 2022 to an agreement for his traspaso by 35 million euros more other 25 'kilos' in variables. A very high signing, but that has answered to the interest that produced by the player. Teams like the Manchester City, Chelsea and the own Barça tried to carry it, but finish imposing the White House. It will follow a very seemed way to the of Vinicius Jr in his day and will split, surely, from The Factory madridista.
New crash of 'stars' between Barça and Madrid
The two 'big' of Spain have achieved the incorporation of, probably, the best projects of footballers that have gone out of Brazil in the last years. Those that all wanted to, in any case. They are footballers that have by religion the goal and that are called to turn into 'cracks', but that surely will live a process of important adaptation in what they install in the old continent. It is necessary to begin by a Vitor Roque (18) that is signing a dazzling season with the Athletico Paranaense. Sum ten goals and five assistances in 25 participations, with an average of goal/assistance each 112 minutes.
The born in Timóteo has hit very rapido in the Brazilian football, to the point that already they consider him the only able player to turn into the 'new' Ronaldo Nazario, in case that it follow the same ascending line that has had up to now. We are speaking of a player that shows constantly forceful in all the facets of the game, especially to the hour of presionar and deliver efforts. Has goal, an innate capacity to read the game and advance to what can do the rival and a speed that, almost always, plays to his favour.
Vitor Roque, a strategic signing
Has a profile that to the Barça loves him, because it is not a '9' that remains in the area expecting the hour to finish, all the contrary. SAnd has stood out, especially in the last months, by his capacity to associate with his mates. It has not showed selfish, to weigh that has big skills for zafarse of rivals with a lot of ease, in spite of his height, and constantly is identifying zones of finish that it can reach.
It is accustomed to split in the centre of the attack, as maximum offensive reference, but tends to fall constantly in the two bands in research of the balloon. In the City Condal see him like the ideal candidate to litigate him the place to Robert Lewandowski and, more important still, as his successor. It will be a slow process, a change that will produce to slow fire because the priority of the team is that it grow, finish to develop like footballer and, afterwards, was able to take the baton of the attack.
It does not be necessary to forget that we are speaking of a player that finish to reach the majority of age and that, although it already has showed to have characteristics that can turn him into a 'crack', still has a lot that learn and improve. His first season in Catalan earths can be essential so that it improve some appearances, as his tendency to sobreacelerar in the played, that in a lot of occasions does not finish with good result. It will have to learn to give pause, think and take the most hit decision while it goes in career.
The Madrid and his confidence in Endrick
In the Barça already know in what it can convert Vitor Roque and is very evident that have him fichado so that it was the competition of Endrick. To his 16 years is playing his first season in the maximum category with the Palmeiras and has had a lot of problems to adapt to the football of greater level, something that in the White House does not alarm a lot because they understand that it is typical of the age and that still remains long (a year, in specific) so that it can follow developing as footballer before playing in Santiago Bernabéu.
It has not had luck Endrick, this is true, but the faith that has him the Madrid is not blind. Since it burst into in the inferior categories of the group of São Paulo. In Brazil have it in a list of the 'chosen', with Roque, by all what has showed to so short age. It is a player with a lot of impudence in the zone of ending and that is used to to associate well in the last metres before defining. It gives him very easy arrive to the rival goal and zafarse of rivals in career.
Endrick, explosion under way
The explosividad in his game is what more has called the attention since it appeared like one of the footballers to take in account. And it is that, although has a few appearances -normal- for improving, already has stood out how is able to situate in the place indicated, in the precise moment and with a big mobility that benefits him to the hour to receive the balloon. This, without place to doubts, has turned him into a quebradero of head for his rivals to the hour to mark it or pursue it.
His vision of game, control of what happens to his around, good dribbling and versatility in the field have carried it to be the big bet of the Real Madrid, that will look for that it follow improving his game to average term. Endrick Still is very young and has margin to increase his capacity to associate with his mates or reduce his individualism with the balloon, as well as improve his tactical reading. Has time and, especially, confidence from Chamartín.
