Relief for Barcelona! New arrival Vitor Roque finally registered with La Liga in time for Las Palmas clash

The Brazilian wonderkid, <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/watch-vitor-roque-barcelona-brazilian-catalonia-athletico-paranaense/bltfc71ce7fb7b76e6a" target="_blank">who arrived at Barcelona at the end of December</a>, was included in their matchday squad for the Las Palmas clash despite not being registered with La Liga. The young attacker has even started training with the main squad after a brief winter break, following his move from Athletico Paranaense.

WHAT HAPPENED?

But on Wednesday, the Catalan giants confirmed that the player has been registered with the league and is eligible to make his debut for the reigning La Liga champions on Thursday at Gran Canaria Stadium.<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">REGISTERED. 🐅 <a href="https://t.co/S9n5yGzirY">pic.twitter.com/S9n5yGzirY</a>— FC Barcelona (@FCBarcelona) <a href="https://twitter.com/FCBarcelona/status/1742640554481959382?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">January 3, 2024</a></blockquote>
