Barcelona star nearing exit with Brazil switch expected to be finalised today | OneFootball

Barcelona appear to be edging closer to finalising the sale of Vitor Roque to Palmeiras, with the approval of Real Betis.

Reports from SPORT suggest that the deal could be completed as early as today, bringing in €25 million for the Catalan club.

The negotiations have reached an advanced stage, with all parties involved now working on ironing out the remaining details before sealing the agreement.

Details of the deal

The framework of the transfer is already in place. Barcelona and Palmeiras have reportedly agreed on a €25 million deal for 80% of the Brazilian forward’s economic rights, while the remaining 20% will stay with Barcelona.

One key aspect of the deal is the timeline, as Barcelona are determined to complete the transfer before June 30 to include the transaction in their current financial year.

While Palmeiras are keen to complete the signing, some minor financial details remain to be settled between the two clubs.

Real Betis, meanwhile, have no intention of disrupting the agreement, as they maintain a positive relationship with Barcelona.

The club could potentially receive a small percentage of Roque’s future sale if they agree to facilitate the deal now. However, their main priority is ensuring smooth negotiations rather than obstructing Barcelona’s efforts to offload the player.

Optimism is growing at Palmeiras, with their sporting management confident that everything is falling into place.

Everything is on track

The deal has been progressing well over recent days, and there are no significant roadblocks left. Barcelona have also ensured that Roque’s wishes have been taken into account, as the young forward has been keen to return to Brazil.

His agent, Andre Cury, has played a key role in facilitating the move, working closely with all parties to ensure the best outcome.

Now, with only the final details left to be finalised, Barcelona are moving closer to officially offloading Roque to Palmeiras.

Unless any unexpected issues arise, the deal should be wrapped up soon, providing financial relief to the club while also keeping an interest in the striker’s future.
