He is just 17 years old and Vitor Roque can now boast about being wanted by most of Europe. The player, who has a contract at Athletico Paranaense until 2027, could move to Europe soon. 

As well as the well known interest from Barcelona, PSG, Chelsea and Arsenal, Atletico Madrid, AC Milan and Inter are the latest to join the fight. 'Mundo Deportivo' reports that Atletico, AC and Inter have asked about the attacker.

Barcelona are calm and will be regardless of how much competition there is from other clubs. According to the newspaper, Vitor Roque's priority is to join the Catalan outfit. 

Vitor Roque's agent, Andre Cury, was in the Catalan capital and had a meeting with the Barca big wigs. The agent told the club that his priority is to play at the Camp Nou and that he would make as it easy for Barca to be able to pay for him.

Athletico Paranaense are clear that they will not give the Brazilian away on the cheap and they are asking for 35 to 40 million for Vitor Roque. "We've received offer, but no one has reached what we've asked for," Paranaense president Mario Celso Petraglia confirmed a few days ago. 

Andre Cury says that a Spanish club have put 25 million euros on the table. However, that is not enough for Atletico Paranaense. It is not known whether that offer was made by Barcelona, front runners in the race to buy Vitor Roque.
