"After a brief and unsuccessful spell at Barcelona, it was believed that Vitor Roque's European career had come to an early end, especially after he returned to Brazil to play for Palmeiras. The Brazilian giants paid as much as €25 million for his services, despite his struggles in Europe. However, that move has proven to be a masterstroke for the club."
"Barcelona are not interested in bringing back Vitor Roque to the club. But the club will take an interest in his potential move to the Premier League. That is because the Catalans had added a 20% sell-on fee clause in his contract at Palmeiras, meaning the club will be entitled to 20% of the player's transfer fee. This means the Blaugrana are now bracing themselves for a slight financial boost."
Vitor Roque left Barcelona after a brief unsuccessful spell and returned to Brazil to sign for Palmeiras for up to €25 million despite earlier struggles in Europe. Roque scored 20 goals and provided five assists in 59 competitive matches for Palmeiras, significantly raising his market value. The forward is closing in on a move to the Premier League. Barcelona are not pursuing his return but inserted a 20% sell-on clause in his Palmeiras contract, entitling them to a fifth of any transfer fee. A €50 million sale could yield Barcelona about €10 million and help their finances ahead of the 1:1 rule.
