I personally first got to know Vitor Roque during his brief spell at Barcelona. Although things did not work out as expected for him there, I still believe he is a young player with potential who could offer something interesting to a Premier League club.

Looking at Chelsea's situation, I think bringing in another attacking player could be necessary, especially with João Pedro currently injured. We have seen how important he is to Chelsea's attacking setup, and his absence could create problems if the club does not have a reliable alternative.
If Chelsea truly believe Roque is someone they can trust and who fits into the manager's plans, then I won't have any problem with the club making a move for him. However, I don't want us to rush into another expensive signing simply because we need a striker.
One thing I would love Chelsea to do is carefully examine his injury history and fitness record before making any serious commitment. We have seen how frustrating it can be when a player arrives with fitness concerns and spends more time recovering than helping the team on the pitch.
At this point, Chelsea need a fit, reliable and available striker who is ready to contribute immediately. Potential is good, but availability is equally important in football.
I would rather see Chelsea spend wisely on a player who can stay fit and help the team consistently than invest €50 million in someone whose fitness could become another concern for the club.
Roque might turn out to be a fantastic signing, but Chelsea must do their homework before making that decision.
