According to the report from football-espana, Barcelona forward Vitor Roque arrived to much fanfare, despite being relatively green, and it has been a mixed start for the Brazilian. The 18-year-old has come on in both the games he has been available for, with a mixed scorecard, after impressing his teammates.InformationGuideNigeria
Sent on for the final 15 minutes of Barcelona’s clash with Las Palmas, as they looked for the winner in the Canary Islands. Roque moved well, springing himself through the defence, but was unable to beat Alvaro Valles with a chance that most would have expected him to bury.

Xavi again called on Roque this weekend, sending him on for the final half hour to try and put the game to bed. Starting initially through the middle, then moving out wide to make space for Robert Lewandowski, Roque again looked agile and smart with his movement. However he had another golden chance to seal the match, but was thwarted trying to slip the ball between the ‘keeper’s legs in a one-on-one.NYSC Portal
Xavi Hernandez has been keen to emphasize that not too much pressure should be placed on his shoulders, as a recently arrived 18-year-old from a different continent. There have been solid signs of his quality early on, although it is true that if he arrived with a reputation, it was that of being lethal in front of goal. With Barcelona short of inspiration currently, Xavi will be keen to see that first goal go in as soon as possible, for both the team and Roque.
