"Chelsea and Tottenham have been linked with the move for the Brazilian striker Vitor Roque. The 20-year-old has done quite well since returning to Brazil with Palmeiras. He has 17 goals for them in 46 appearances, and he has to be an asset for the club. It is no surprise that Chelsea and Tottenham have been linked with him. It will be interesting to see if they come forward with an offer to get the deal done."
"He has also added that Tottenham are not considering a move for the 20-year-old any time soon. They have two strikers at their disposal who would be ahead of Roque in the pecking order. He said on his YouTube channel: The name is completely ruled out. Chelsea never thought about, nor intends to think about, signing Vitor Roque. Any noise around the forward comes from people close to Vitor trying to give him visibility abroad."
Vitor Roque has scored 17 goals in 46 appearances since returning to Palmeiras and is considered an asset for the club. Chelsea and Tottenham have been linked with moves but Chelsea sources say the Blues are not interested and Tottenham are not considering a move any time soon. Tottenham have two strikers ahead of Roque in the pecking order. Palmeiras invested 21 million and are confident the investment will keep Roque at the club for the long term. Palmeiras plan to retain him as a key player who will improve with coaching and regular playing time. Roque previously failed to make his mark at Barcelona and may need more development before a Premier League move.
