Roberto Fernández has caught the attention of Villarreal, who are keen on securing his transfer. Villarreal is ready to financially compete with Espanyol for his acquisition. Although Roberto wishes to stay with Espanyol, where he has found much happiness, the club is struggling with significant financial challenges to keep him. Sporting Braga, Roberto's parent club, insists on his release clause of 45 million euros. Villarreal, along with Betis and several Premier League clubs, are set to challenge Espanyol, using their superior financial capabilities to potentially acquire Roberto. As Roberto gears up to participate in the Under-21 European Championship, his future remains uncertain, with multiple clubs pursuing his signature.
