Barcelona forward unaware of interest from La Liga rivals; prioritises staying at club | OneFootball

Barcelona have reached an agreement with Real Betis to terminate Vitor Roque’s loan deal and sell him to Palmeiras.

As part of the agreement, the Blaugrana have offered the Verdiblancos some compensation in the form of an additional 30% economic rights of former winger Ez Abde.

In addition, it is being claimed that Barça have also agreed to let a youth player join Betis in the summer.

This comes on the back of reports claiming that Manuel Pellegrini’s side had asked for an option to sign Pau Victor on loan in the summer with a permanent buy clause.

Pau Victor remains keen to stay at Barcelona

However, now, according to SPORT, Pau Victor has no knowledge of any potential move to Real Betis in the summer. Moreover, his priority remains staying at Barcelona, despite his limited playing time.

It is true that Betis showed interest in Victor when his registration with Barcelona was uncertain in January. The Andalusian club offered him a place, as he is a player they admire. However, once the issue was resolved, discussions did not progress further.

Victor, under contract with Barcelona until 2029, showcased his quality during pre-season, proving he has the level to play for the first team. Flick initially gave him opportunities, but he has had minimal playing time in recent months.

The final decision on his future will depend on how the season unfolds and what both the player and the club decide.

If Barcelona open the door to his departure, he is expected to attract numerous offers, with Betis potentially being one of them.

For now, Victor remains focused on earning more minutes at Barcelona to gain experience and prove himself, just as he did in pre-season.

While Betis, along with several La Liga teams and a German club, continue to monitor his situation, there have been no significant developments. If any option was agreed upon with the Verdiblancos, it is more symbolic than binding.

Ultimately, Victor holds the power over his future and, if he were to leave, he would personally choose his next destination.
