Real Betis shows Barcelona how to treat Vitor Roque
Real Betis awaits the debut of ex-Barcelona player Vitor Roque against Real Madrid
Brazilian Vitor Roque, now a Real Betis player and formerly of Barcelona , is likely to make his official debut in the new challenge against Real Madrid at the Santiago Bernabéu, a match valid for LaLiga .
The Brazilian is leaving Barcelona on loan after failing to perform well in Catalonia. In total, he has only scored twice in 16 games. Roque did not want to leave Flick’s team, but the decision was made.
The signing of Vitor Roque for Real Betis was a request from local coach Pellegrini . According to Sport, the youngster will be a starter as soon as he is 100% physically fit. Betis, unlike Barça, believes a lot in the potential of Cruzeiro’s revelation, who, in Brazil , had a good time at Athletico.
Shirt 8
Vitor Roque will wear the number 8 shirt for Real Betis in the new season. He is not a center forward and does not play as a midfielder on the field, but he will inherit the shirt from Frenchman Fekir , who was traded.
Fekir won the Copa del Rey in 2021 and has become a great idol for the club and its fans. Betis’ decision to hand the number 8 shirt to the Brazilian shows that he really has a reputation in Sevilla.
The new stimulus from the other side of Spain will give Vitor Roque a huge boost and show everyone at Barcelona that they were wrong about his quality. The striker is very much willing to do his best.
Real Madrid and Real Betis face each other this Sunday (1), in Madrid, at the Santiago Bernabéu stadium. The merengue club has two draws and one win, while Betis has drawn its only two games.
