Despite Barcelona having to endure a tough first half of the season in 2023, the new year promises better things. For now, the players continue to enjoy their winter holidays and rest up before new challenges arrive. However, there are different things to look forward to for Barcelona up ahead.

First and foremost, 2024 presents Barcelona with a chance to start afresh. There are still four competitions to challenge for, and even La Liga is far from over. Moreover, fans of La Blaugrana and the club itself will be excited about the prospect of welcoming their latest superstar.

Vitor Roque, aged 18, is a Brazilian striker that Barcelona have been waiting on for quite some time. With the deal for his transfer having been agreed already, it was just a matter of time before he made his way to Barcelona. Now, as per Mundo Deportivo, his arrival and schedule are all pretty much sorted.

First, the player is set to arrive in Barcelona on the 27th of December. This date was chosen so that he could previously enjoy Christmas in Brazil. Soon after, he will join Xavi’s training session with the Barcelona first team on the 29th of the same month.

The focus of that training session will be to prepare for the upcoming game against UD Las Palmas. On the 30th of December, Roque will be in front of the Barcelona fans in an open training session. In the new year, the first order of business will be the traditional visit to the Barcelona hospitals.

This will take place on the 2nd of January, after which Roque will be officially presented on the very next day on the 3rd of January. Right after, on the 4th, the Catalans will be taking on UD Las Palmas away from home. There is a great expectation that the Las Palmas game could see Roque’s debut.
