The Catalan club has registered new addition Vitor Roque with La Liga in time for the 18-year-old attacker to make his debut vs. Las Palmas today.
Barcelona secured Vitor’s transfer from Athletico Paranaense in a deal worth almost 70 million dollars during the summer. Roque’s arrival in Barcelona wasn’t initially planned until the beginning of the next campaign because of spending restrictions, but the team had a chance to register him now, and they took it.

The Brazilian was unveiled by his new club at the end of last year, but rumors were that the team would not be able to register him with the league in the upcoming days. However, Barca manager Xavi shared a few hours ago that he thinks that the club will not have any problems registering him soon, and that became a fact a few hours later as he can be in his squad for the match against Las Palmas at Estadio Gran Canaria.
