Palmeiras midfielder Vitinho is close to moving to Barcelona.
The deal for Vitinho to move on loan to Barça B could become a reality in a matter of days, says Sport.
"I've heard something about Vitinho's exit and it seems good for the player and the club if he goes to Barcelona B. He's training well but, unfortunately, he can't get the necessary minutes with us. At the moment, he needs to play," Palmeiras manager Cuca said.
In principle, the 19-year-old will join Barça B on loan, although the club will have an option to sign him on a permanent deal in 2018 -- as they did with Marlon Santos.
