Hansi Flick makes call on future of Barcelona forward | OneFootball

Barcelona are hoping to make at least one star signing this summer, with Dani Olmo looking the most likely to arrive after they submitted a third bid for him. However there is stilll little happening in the way of exits.

Perhaps the player most heavily linked with an exit is 19-year-old forward Vitor Roque, who only came to Catalonia in January. Costing them €30m, Roque has barely been given a chance, but it looks as if that will continue. According to Diario AS, Roque is not part of Hansi Flick’s plans either, and Barcelona will seek a loan or a permanent exit for him, after a disappointing first few weeks in preseason.

Pau Victor, who scored against Manchester City and was the Pichichi at Barca Atletic last season, is expected to occupy the back-up role to Robert Lewandowski. Barcelona parted with €2.5m to make his move from Girona permanent.

The tricky part will now be left to Sporting Director Deco. He must find a way of recouping Barcelona’s money for the Brazilian, after such a disappointing opening six months, where two managers have decided he is not up to the standard.
