Same agent as Estevao: Agent confirms Chelsea working on deal to hijack Tottenham target

Agent André Cury has confirmed that both Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur are pursuing Palmeiras striker Vitor Roque ahead of the January transfer window. The 21-year-old Brazilian forward, who previously played for Barcelona and Real Betis, is also drawing interest from Manchester United and Everton. Chelsea reportedly hope to leverage Cury's existing relationship with the club, as he also represents Blues winger Estevao.

Palmeiras have reportedly set a minimum asking price of €50m (£44m) for Roque, who remains under contract until December 2029. Meanwhile, Chelsea manager Xabi Alonso provided team news ahead of their Premier League match against Sunderland, revealing that midfielder Moisés Caicedo is dealing with discomfort while defender Aaron Anselmino could make the squad.
