He's the up and coming young star of Brazilian football. Vitor Roque has turned the heads of several big European clubs, with Barcelona assuming the role as favourites. Unfortunately for the Catalans, Athletico Paranaense's young gem has one hefty price-tag.
'AS' have reported that, to get the young 18 year old on board, Barca will have to fork out at least 50 million euros. This offer would buy them 85% of the player. The Brazilian side, who finished sixth in the league this year, are in a good situation economically and like to keep certain percentages of players, keeping any future transfers in mind. As for the Catalan side, they would be trying to avoid this situation at all costs.
The La Liga leader's first €25 million offer was rejected by the Brazilian side.
