Barcelona reject Lazio's €20m offer for Vitor Roque

FC Barcelona continue to work on the departure of Vitor Roque, as he is not in Hansi Flick's plans for next season. But the 'Cules' do not want to let him go at any price, so his departure is becoming more complicated.

Lazio were the best placed team to get his services. In fact, according to 'Corriere dello Sport', they sent an offer of 20 million euros for 50% of the player's transfer, with the intention of a definitive sale in the future.

However, 'Sport' pointed out that Barca would have rejected the Italian proposal, as their objective is to achieve a transfer in exchange for 40 million euros, the amount at which they have valued the Brazilian. The idea of the 'Cules' is to recover the investment made for this young player.

So far, the only club that has shown willingness to reach the figure requested by 'Can Barca' is Neymar's Al Hilal, but both Vitor Roque and his entourage do not want to move to Saudi Arabia. The striker will give priority to remain in Europe.

On the other hand, some entities have been interested in getting the loan of 'Tigrinho'. Betis or Porto would like to pay the striker's wages for one season and include a non-compulsory option to buy. The Catalans, for the moment, are not contemplating these options.
