Will Vitor Roque anticipate his arrival to Barcelona? Paranaense responds firmly.

Two months ago, FC Barcelona surprised the world by announcing the acquisition of Vitor Roque, the Brazilian football prodigy who conquered all of Europe. Through a statement published on their website, the Blaugrana revealed that the young forward has signed a contract until 2031 and will join the first team in the middle of next year. However, recently, information leaked about the possibility that President Joan Laporta and his collaborators are looking to bring forward the Brazilian's incorporation. In response to these reports, Athletico Paranaense itself issued a response.

During this transfer market, the option for Roque to join the Catalan squad is completely ruled out, according to Globo Esporte citing sources from the 'Furacao' management. Therefore, the possibility of seeing the talented South American in the 'Old Continent' would not happen during the course of 2023.
