Arsenal and Chelsea have been linked with a move for Brazilian wonderkid Vitor Roque ahead of the summer transfer window. The 18-year-old has impressed with his side Athletico Paranaense since breaking into the first-team, with his recent performances even earning him a call-up to the senior men's Brazil squad.
The striker has since been rumoured with an exit and has even talked up the potential for a switch to Europe to continue his early career, with Barcelona a particular aim. He told Sport in February: "If ending up going to Barca comes to fruition, it will be a great joy for my family and for me... for this reason, I have to continue working hard and hope that everything will come to fruition over time."
The issue for the Catalonian side will likely be their restrictions in the transfer market as they look to adhere to financial fair play rules. Last summer they were playing in the free transfer market as they scaled back spending, while it remains to be seen what the case will be this time around.
