Manchester United have reportedly entered the race to sign Brazilian forward Vitor Roque and have already taken a significant step toward securing his services ahead of the January transfer window, according to The Peoples Person.
The 19-year-old striker, currently at Barcelona, has attracted interest from several European clubs. United's early move suggests they are positioning themselves as frontrunners for the talented forward, who has shown promise in La Liga and for Brazil's youth teams.
Roque joined Barcelona from Athletico Paranaense in 2024 but has struggled for consistent playing time. A move to Old Trafford could offer the regular first-team football he seeks, while United would gain a young, versatile attacker with significant upside.
Negotiations are understood to be at an advanced stage, with the January window approaching rapidly. Both clubs will need to agree on a fee structure, potentially involving a loan with an obligation to buy or a permanent transfer.
