Barcelona has agreed a deal to bring Vitor Roque back to Brazil just over a year after he was touched in Spain, but there is no thing for his move to Palmeiras – the agreement of real betis. Los Verdiblancos has Roque on loan until the end of the season, and options in his contract to buy the 19-year-old himself, or to extend his loan.
Palmeiras pays a reported € 25 million plus € 5 million in variables to Barcelona for Roque, although the Catalan giants would also retain 20% of his rights. After La Liga initially refused permission for the deal to continue, Barcelona has since requested and obtained permission from FIFA and then the Royal Spanish football federation (RFEF) for the deal to continue.
However, they sometimes have to agree on the termination of Roque's loan to let the deal go through, and understandably they try what they can get out of the deal. On Thursday morning, Barcelona offered to throw in an additional 30% of the rights of Economic Abde, with Betis currently only 50% of the deal of € 7.5 million possessed last summer.
Now MD says that Betis Barcelona Pau Victor wants as part of the deal. When it seemed as if he might not have been registered for the second half of the season, Betis showed interest in a loan, and they want to have Victor on loan for next season (from the summer), with an option to buy. The Catalan daily notes that conversations are 'very intense' and nothing has yet been concluded between Betis and Barcelona.
The limit is on Friday, when the Brazilian transfer window closed. Barcelona will be desperate to close the deal, to prevent a potential loss from being laid along the line with an embarrassing transfer movement. Victor arrived in the summer for € 3 million from Girona, after having spent the previous year on loan to Barca Atletic. This season he has two goals and an assist in 259 minutes.
