Roque, who only joined Barcelona in January from Athletico Paranaense, was not in Hansi Flick's plans for this season. A permanent sale had been sought, but the player's desire to join Betis – who only offered an initial loan – proved decisive.
MD have revealed the details of the loan agreement between Betis and Barcelona. Roque will remain with Los Verdiblancos until the end of the 2025-26 season, and a €25m purchase option will also be included. In the event of activation, Barcelona will retain a 20% sell-on clause. They also have the option to buy Roque from Betis, and could do so for €27.5 million.
