In a recent interview with the Italian media, Andrea Curri, the agent of Barcelona's on-loan striker Vitor Roque, revealed the interest of a number of Serie A clubs in the young Brazilian player, with Inter Milan specifically mentioned. Although Roque eventually joined Real Betis on loan, teams such as Inter did cast an eye on the starlet during the transfer window.
Andrea Curi described in detail the contacts with the different clubs, admitting that the contact with Fiorentina was very brief and not in-depth, and that there were no substantial offers or negotiations on the transfer of Roque. As for Lazio and Inter Milan, Curry also confirmed that they did show interest in Roque, but unfortunately these interests did not translate into concrete offers or in-depth negotiations.
Roque, a rising star from Barcelona's youth system, eventually chose to join La Liga powerhouse Real Betis on loan this season due to his difficulties in getting consistent playing opportunities in Barcelona's first team. This decision is aimed at providing him with more game time and training opportunities so that he can better play for Barcelona or other top clubs in the future.
Andrea Currie's comments further confirm Roque's appeal in the transfer market, and despite the fact that he has already begun his new journey at Betis, the possibility of more big clubs throwing their arms around him in the future cannot be ruled out. For Roque, how to show his strength in Betis and win more attention will be the direction he needs to work on next.
