Early in his time in Seville, Barcelona’s young player Vitor Roque—who is presently on loan at Real Betis—had an injury setback.
In fact, Los Verdiblancos have formally declared that the 19-year-old Barça loanee’s ankle ailment has kept him out of action.
“Following tests carried out by the club’s medical services on our player Vítor Roque, a low-grade sprain of the internal ligament of his left ankle has been confirmed. The prognosis will depend on the evolution of the process,” the statement read.
Since Real Betis’ most recent match against RCD Mallorca, the young attacker reportedly experienced discomfort in his ankle.
As a result, manager Manuel Pellegrini confirmed the news of the fitness issue and left him off the team list for their next match against Las Palmas.
Currently, Betis have verified that Roque has sustained some damage to his ankle and will be out of commission for a while.
Although a precise recuperation schedule has not been provided, Spanish media indicate that the teenage striker may miss two weeks of action.
Roque, who has been guilty of squandering several good opportunities to score goals, is devastated by this. He had shown promise early in his time at Betis.
Equipped with quick feet and a low center of gravity, Roque excels in one-on-one situations. His dribbling skills allow him to navigate through tight defenses, and he often uses feints and sharp turns to create space. This creativity is crucial in breaking down organized defenses.
Many believe Vitor Roque could be the next big star to emerge from Brazil, following in the footsteps of legends like Neymar and Ronaldinho. Football fans around the world are eager to see what the future holds for this young talent.
Now, the child will aim for a speedy recovery and get back to action as soon as possible.
