Speaking with palpable enthusiasm, Cury emphasizes the significance of Roque’s unwavering desire to join Barcelona. The player’s unyielding determination to don the iconic Blaugrana jersey left no room for doubt, as he spurned offers from other interested parties. “Every negotiation is fraught with complexities, particularly when dealing with a player of Roque’s caliber,” explains Cury. “However, Vitor had his heart set on Barcelona from the moment he learned of their interest. He aspired to follow in the footsteps of illustrious compatriots like Rivaldo, Romario, Ronaldo, Ronaldinho, and Neymar — football luminaries who achieved greatness at the Camp Nou.”

The agent reveals that this monumental signing has been simmering for over a year, involving numerous conversations with Deco, a trusted confidant in the player’s camp. Now, after careful deliberation and meticulous planning, Roque’s dream move to Barcelona has become a reality. Cury exudes gratitude towards the Barcelona hierarchy, expressing his admiration for their astute decision-making. “Barcelona recognized in Vitor the same exceptional talent that Cruzeiro identified six years ago, that Athletico acknowledged a year ago, and that the national team discovered just three months ago,” remarks Cury.

I extend my heartfelt appreciation to Barcelona’s president, Xavi, and everyone involved for placing their trust in us. They have undoubtedly made the right choice.”

As the dust settles on this monumental transfer, the anticipation surrounding Vitor Roque’s arrival at Barcelona continues to build. The Brazilian wonderkid, armed with unparalleled determination and an indomitable spirit, is poised to carve his own path at Camp Nou, following in the footsteps of legends and etching his name into the annals of footballing greatness.

His accomplishments should not be downplayed or ignored. But England can't quite get over the hill when it counts. As was evident last night, and Italy in the final of the Euros, England struggle to turn that firm grip on the game into chances and goals. Deschamps's men were not better than England's.
