Arriving with high hopes at FC Barcelona last January, Victor Roque did not experience the success he hoped for. In an interview with Real Betis television, where he is on loan this season, the 19-year-old Brazilian spoke openly about his difficult experience in Catalonia. Between a hasty departure and limited opportunities, Roque admits that his integration was chaotic.

A failure, but a lesson

“I found out I was coming to Spain just a week before, while I was still on vacation in Brazil. I didn’t have time to adapt. Once I arrived, the opportunities to show myself were very rare. I went through complicated times, but it served as a lesson to me”confided the young striker, while rejoicing at his present at Betis, where he is gradually regaining confidence.
