FC Barcelona is worried. The young Vitor Roque (18), who is due to join the club in January after being the subject of a €60 million transfer, injured his ankle yesterday during the meeting between Athletico Paranaense and International (2-1). He was taken out on a stretcher, his face buried in his hands. This seemed to be a major glitch that Xavi is following very carefully.

“The medical staff is in permanent contact with doctors in Brazilreports the Barça coach at a press conference. Those who are loaned or transferred with an option to buy are followed by Bojan (Krkic, who follows players on loan from FC Barcelona). These are players who could be with us. We just have to wait for the medical verdict to know the extent of the damage.
