Reports from Spain suggest that Lazio are seriously thinking about making a move for Barcelona starlet Vitor Roque.
The 19-year-old Brazilian forward joined the Blaugrana from Athletico Paranaense in the January transfer window, arriving in a deal worth around €30 million plus €30 million in various add-ons, putting pen to paper on a seven-year contract.
Lazio have been hard at work in the summer transfer window, looking to bolster Marco Baroni’s squad, completing deals for Loum Tchaouna, Tijjani Noslin and Fisayo Dele-Bashiru, with Nuno Tavares set to arrive in the coming hours.
As reported by Mundo Deportivo and Footmercato (via La Lazio Siamo Noi), Lazio are interested in picking up Vitor Roque this summer and have planned to offer Barcelona a loan deal with a €25 million buy option attached.
Should the deal for Manchester United exile Mason Greenwood fail, the offer to the Blaugrana would be sent. The Biancocelesti have given the Red Devils an ultimatum and want to accelerate in the coming days.
