Vitor Roque, a 20-year-old Brazilian striker, may be on the verge of making a move back to Europe, with Manchester United reportedly preparing a €50 million offer for the Palmeiras forward, as indicated by Mundo Deportivo.
Since returning to Brazil, Roque has found his top form, having a remarkable season with the São Paulo club. He has netted 13 goals and contributed three assists in the ongoing league campaign, playing a crucial role in Palmeiras’ title race.
After facing challenges in Spain with Barcelona and Real Betis, Roque’s resurgence in Brazil has sparked renewed interest from European clubs. Manchester United views him as a potential long-term attacking option to enhance Ruben Amorim’s squad with his speed and finishing ability.
United is not the only club interested, as Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur are also reportedly keeping a close eye on the young talent. It remains uncertain whether these clubs will act in January or choose to wait until the summer transfer window.
