The disturbed departure of Ousmane Dembélé towards PSG will not automatically mean the landing of Vitor Roque in Barcelona this August.
The anticipation of the arrival of ‘Tigrinho’ is a much more complicated operation than it may seem at first glance and that it does not depend exclusively on the blaugrana will.
First of all, Barça will have to decide what it will do with the resources it will receive from the transfer of Dembéléif they will be completely reinvested in new hires and if, with these new arrivals, the entire salary margin that will be released with the departure of the wayward French winger will be occupied or not
This is a scenario full of uncertainty, because, to begin with, at the moment there is no agreement for the transfer because Barça is not willing to pay Dembelé 25 ‘kilos’. And, as the departure of Ousmane has caught the club with the wrong foot, the sports management has not yet decided if there will be reinforcements and what profile they will hypothetically have. Looking for a right back, with Ivan Fresneda as the best placed, and now a winger.
In this situation, Barça will have to see if they leave a margin in the wage bill to sign up Vitor Roque. In principle, the arrival of the ‘9’ from Ath. Paranaense, which has cost 30 million euros (plus variables that can reach 31 ‘kilos’), is scheduled for the winter market, once there has been a relaxation of the Financial Fair Play rules by LaLiga next autumn .
Negotiate with the ‘Furacao’
If Barça wants to have ‘Tigrinho’ now, the second part of the operation will come: the negotiation with Ath. paranaense. And this will be subordinated fundamentally to strictly sporting issues of the Brazilian team.
As long as ‘Furacao’ is alive in the 2023 Copa Libertadores, which is his main objective after being eliminated in the Copa do Brasil, it will be difficult for him to sit down to negotiate with Barça financial compensation since you do not want to part with your main asset.
The team that leads Wesley Carvalho He played this last morning in La Paz the first leg of the round of 16 of the continental tournament. They lost by a dangerous 3-1, with ‘Tigrinho’ giving an assist, and they will have to come back in the return scheduled for next Tuesday in Curitiba.
In case the Ath. Paranaense qualify to play the quarterfinals, they will face the winner of the tie between River Plate and Internacional, from Porto Alegre (this last morning at the Monumental de Núñez the Millionaires won 2-1). The first leg is scheduled for the week of Tuesday August 22 and the return, seven days later, the week of August 29.
Therefore, this second tie, that of the quarterfinals, will be resolved before the closing of the transfer market in Spanish football, which is on Friday, September 1.
As you may have learned SPORT, Barcelona has not yet contacted Vitor Roque’s agents or the Ath sports management. Paranaense to test the possibilities of accelerating the incorporation of the ‘9’.
