After suffering what appeared to be a serious injury during Athletico Paranaense’s most recent match at home against Internacional, journalist Javi Miguel has disclosed that Barcelona has been in contact with Vitor Roque to inquire about his availability.

According to the reporter, initial indications point to a serious ankle injury, and although Barcelona waits for the results of the tests, it is speculated that it will take at least three months before the young player can return to action.

In the meanwhile, those who represent the player have assured Barcelona that there is no great cause for concern, although no one can be certain of the severity of the issue because the results have not yet been made public.

It is anticipated that any news surrounding the matter will become available throughout the day.

What exactly took place is the question.

Roque, who is set to play for Barcelona, was forced to leave the field just seven minutes into the match as a result of a vigorous challenge made by Nicolas Hernandez, who is a defender for Internacional. Roque is headed to Barcelona. 

The accident not only caused damage to his right ankle, but it also caused a hazardous twist in his knee, and he had to be carried off the field on a stretcher despite clearly showing signs of excruciating pain.

Now, preliminary indications indicate that the player has incurred a major ankle injury on his left foot, which may potentially sideline him for as long as three months. If he is unable to play because of this injury, his team will be without him for the next three months.

Today is likely to see an update.

Concerns about Vitor Roque’s health are being addressed by Athletico in an effort to allay such worries. There is no need for alarm, according to Head Coach Wesley Carvalho, who stated (via SPORT) that “Our medical team will assess the duration of his absence, but it’s still too early to determine.”

Roque is scheduled to have a complete physical checkup performed on him today by the medical staff of Athletico Paranaense. At this point, we should have a better idea of how long the striker is likely to be out of action as a result of their injury. 

na about the seriousness of Roque’s injury and how it may or may not have an effect on the possibility of his joining Barcelona during the upcoming transfer window for the winter season.
