Barcelona currently view the prospect of bringing in Vitor Roque in January as challenging.

 The issue of the wage bill remains a concern.

Barcelona had initially been hopeful of securing Vitor Roque's arrival in January, following an agreement with Athletico Paranaense. However, this prospect is now shrouded in uncertainty due to the club's newly confirmed wage constraints.

The Catalan giants have experienced a significant reduction in their wage limit, plummeting from €648 million in February to €270 million by September, and they are actively working to align with La Liga's prescribed targets.

➖ Barcelona sought a €35 million-rated World Cup winner before opting for Cancelo.

According to reports from Cope, Barcelona currently deem it "highly challenging" to expedite Vitor Roque's transfer to the winter transfer window under the current circumstances. While it hasn't been completely ruled out, such a move would necessitate either a financial boost or a player sale in January. Yet, the report indicates that, as of now, Barcelona is not actively considering player sales in the upcoming winter transfer window.

Barcelona still possesses ample time to explore avenues for accommodating Vitor Roque's arrival in January. If this proves unfeasible, fans may need to exercise patience and wait until the following summer for the promising Brazilian starlet to make his debut at Camp Nou.
