FC Barcelona is still hoping they can register Brazilian forward Vitor Roque in the winter transfer window, but the move is still generally seen as unlikely by the media.
Recent rule changes in the Financial Fair Play regulations from La Liga have made it easier for clubs to register signings. They have allowed certain restrictions to be relaxed that are linked with losses during the COVID pandemic period.
The Athletico Paranaense forward is expected to join next July, because Barcelona do not currently have the salary cap space to sign him on.
