Endrick sent a message of support to Vitor Roque, who recently injured his right ankle.
“Brother, I know you are going through a difficult time and I am with you. Have a good recovery, you will come back much stronger. Phenomenon, Tigrinho,” wrote the Palmeiras jewel in a post on Instagram.
The Athletico Paranaense medical department confirmed that Roque suffered a ligament injury to the syndesmosis of his right ankle. Although he will not have to undergo surgery, the forward is expected to be out for at least eight weeks.

Roque’s injury could result in a change of plans for Barcelona
Roque set off the alarm in the clash against Internacional, when he was taken off on a stretcher after a tough tackle by Nicolás Hernández. With the severity of his injury confirmed, Barcelona could reconsider whether advancing his arrival to January is the most convenient.
Although Tigrinho was only scheduled to move to Catalonia in July 2024, from Spain they suggested that Xavi had in mind to speed up his arrival during the winter market. However, as a result of the injury, perhaps it is best for Roque to make his recovery calmly in Brazil and remain at Furacão until June to regain his football rhythm.
