Barcelona are hoping to bring forward a move for Vitor Roque and register the Brazilian in the January transfer window.
Sporting director Deco has reportedly flown out to Brazil to check on the youngster and seek to reassure him that he can join this winter despite the club’s financial issues.
La Vanguardia are now reporting that Barca need to find €10-12m to register Vitor Roque and there are three ways of doing it: selling players, adjusting contracts downwards or bringing in fresh income.
One player who is about to start contract talks is Frenkie de Jong.
