Historically, the Brazilian market has always achieved very good results for Real Madrid, one example is enough. Vinicius Junior or Rodrigo Goes are just a few examples of the gold mine that Florentino Pérez has been able to exploit and which has given his team so much success. Some time ago, after seeing the great performance obtained, FC Barcelona, which is not a newbie in the signing market, also followed this formula.
However, it can be remembered that the last big deal that Barcelona made with a Brazilian striker was that of Neymar Jr., and we all know how he enjoyed the Camp Nou during his years at Barcelona, despite his bad exit from the team and they ruined his career. Barcelona’s next big hope is Vitor Roque. The Catalan sports department quickly cast its net on the promising striker of Atletico Paranaense, who, at 18 years old, is already being called to be one of the greatest Rams of the future. Barcelona wants to repeat Vitor Roque’s formula.
Vitor Roque’s performance in EA Sports’ LaLiga, a top-tier competition (with all due respect to the Brazilian league) is truly unknown. However, the Catalan team is confident in the talent of the young striker, for whom they paid 30 million euros and who will arrive in January as a replacement for Robert Lewandowski’s generation.
After this process, and with great confidence in the talent of promising youngsters, Barcelona continues to comb the Brazilian league market in search of future stars. They know from the club that they have to sign this profile of players before they blow up, so that they don’t have to pay huge sums of money for them when they actually become a reality.
So, as they did with Vitor Roque, FC Barcelona will continue to bet on this type of signings, which are really risky investments, but if they go well, they provide a significant income. Now, Deco will repeat the path he took with Tigrinho and is already keeping an eye on his counterpart.
At the age of sixteen, Estévao and Willian have already attracted the interest of top clubs on the Old Continent. The winger currently plays for Palmeiras’ U-20 side, but there are already many who compare him to Leo Messi, even though we already know that comparisons are distasteful, and being like the Argentine star is a big word.
But all experts agree that he is the new pearl of Brazil after the explosion of the aforementioned Vitor Roque and Endric, who will also pack his bags to play in Spain, but for Real Madrid. Estévão is a minor, and for this very reason, Deco can suspend him now to leave him in his team and integrate him later, as the white team did that day with Endrek, also from Palmeiras. The reports we have from the sporting department are very good, and there is no time to waste. Barcelona wants to link up with Brazil’s new gem, ‘Misinho’.
