Palmeiras move comes down to Manuel Pellegrini as Vitor Roque gives green light | OneFootball

Palmeiras continue to forge ahead with their intentions to sign Vitor Roque, and they are making progress. The 19-year-old has fallen out of the starting XI at loan club Real Betis, but the decision will come down to them.

After Roque’s agent, Andre Cury, arrived in Barcelona to discuss a deal, Cadena SER report that the Brazilian forward has now given the green light to a move. Roque was seemingly reluctant to leave European football a little over a year after arriving at Barcelona, having been determined to triumph in La Liga. However it appears the Palmeiras offer has been sufficient to change his mind.

Previous reports say that Palmeiras will make Roque a star player and their highest-paid player if he is to join them. President Leila Pereira went public with their interest earlier in the week, noting that if it were only up to her, she would guarantee the signing.
