Vitor Roque’s Barca Dream: Brazilian Wonderkid Pays Homage to Barca Legends in Debut Interview
In his inaugural interview as a Barcelona player, Vitor Roque expressed his admiration for some of the greatest Brazilian footballers who left an indelible mark on the club. “I would say Neymar, Romario, Ronaldo, and Ronaldinho. They are the ones who had the biggest impressions on me,” shared Roque, highlighting the influence of iconic Brazilian figures who donned the Blaugrana colors.
As an ardent Barcelona fan throughout his life, Roque emphasized his unwavering commitment to the club, stating, “I’ve been a Barcelona fan all my life, and I didn’t want to play anywhere else. Barca is a perfect, fantastic club that has everything. Here, the only thing that matters is winning.”
While his selection of idols may reflect his Brazilian roots, there is no denying the global impact of Lionel Messi at Barcelona. The Argentine icon stands as the unparalleled leader in both goals and assists for the club, leaving an enduring legacy.
Vitor Roque, arriving from Brazil, is poised to make his debut on the training pitch with his Barcelona teammates on December 29, 2023, gearing up for Barca’s first game of 2024 against Las Palmas. The young forward’s journey with Barcelona is set to unfold, as he carries the aspirations of a lifelong fan onto the revered Camp Nou stage.
