Xavi Hernández’s departure has opened up a new scenario regarding Vitor Roque‘s immediate future. As is known, the Catalan coach did not count on the Brazilian striker for next season. He wanted him to go on loan.
The curtain has come down on the season for Barça. For the moment, the media tension surrounding Tigrinho, who was used as a throwing weapon in the club’s internal tensions, has subsided.
In the coming weeks, the sporting director must agree with Hansi Flick on what will happen with the Brazilian striker, a club bet who had his arrival brought forward in January with a view to adapting to the 2024/25 season.
Regardless of the decision that Barça ends up taking, the player’s agents have already informed Deco that they have no intention of straining the rope, that they will abide by whatever the club decides and, moreover, that they will do everything in their power to facilitate its implementation.

The professional team that advises Tigrinho continues to believe that the best scenario for everyone is for the player to continue in the first team now under Flick’s management. If his protégé does not enter into the Blaugrana plans for next season, they only consider one solution: a sale so that Barça can recover the investment. They do not believe in a loan with a return date, because, from their point of view, this formula weakens the player and his projection both in the short and medium term.
In recent days, according to SPORT, three European clubs have knocked on Tigrinho’s door interested in his situation at Barça.
