Vitor Roque linked with United amid vague, repeated reports
The situation
Manchester United are being linked with Palmeiras forward Vitor Roque, with reports claiming United, Tottenham Hotspur, Chelsea and Everton have all made contact with his representatives. No window is open for Premier League clubs today; the next is January 2027, running from 1 January to 1 February. Roque has 36 months left on his Palmeiras contract once that window opens, so there is no pressure on them from his contract situation. The reports frame this as interest building for a future move rather than anything close to a bid being lodged.
The reporting
The chain starts with a claim relayed by Sport Witness, which was carrying it by 7 November, naming Chelsea, Manchester United and Tottenham as admirers and citing a €50m figure required to sign him. Transfer News Live then relayed a separate claim putting the asking amount at £42m and naming all four Premier League clubs as having contacted his camp, while CaughtOffside relayed a TEAMtalk report repeating the same United interest alongside Chelsea and Tottenham. Three outlets, but all repeating each other or an original claim elsewhere, and no trusted reporter has put their name to any of it.
The outlook
That pattern of repetition rather than fresh confirmation makes this a longshot for January. Nothing here describes a bid, a medical or Palmeiras softening their stance, just agents being contacted and figures floating between €46m and €50m depending on the source.
What happens next
What would change things is a concrete offer from one of the four clubs, or Palmeiras naming a price they would actually accept.
