Vitor Roque’s first words after returning to Barcelona for pre-season | OneFootball

Barcelona star Vitor Roque has taken to social media on Thursday, to post his first message since linking back up with his teammates in Catalunya’s capital.

The subject of frontman Roque’s future of course took its place front and centre in the headlines in Catalunya’s capital in the months leading into the summer.

This came amid widespread confirmation that the Brazilian had been deemed surplus to requirements by ex-manager Xavi.

The understanding, in turn, was that Barcelona were set to seek out a swift exit for their January signing.

Xavi’s ensuing dismissal, and the appointment of Hansi Flick, however, threw the situation firmly back up in the air.

Roque is now expected to be afforded a chance to prove himself in pre-season, eager to carve out a place for himself at the Camp Nou for next season.

As much comes as music to the ears of the Barcelona faithful, desperate to see their side’s gifted young striker afforded an extended run at senior level.

Such supporters will therefore no doubt be interested to hear of Roque today making public his first thoughts, since kicking into gear pre-season preparations with the rest of Hansi Flick’s squad.

Taking to his official Instagram account on Thursday, the 19-year-old unveiled a photo of himself in action, accompanied by the simple caption:

‘Let’s begin…’
