The ex forward of Sao Paulo has signed by five seasons with the Barça B of García Pepper. It treats of a reinforcement of the that expects that, of a jump of quality to the team,

As his new mates find on holiday after contesting the Playoff of promotion, has had to exercise of form individualizada with the players of the first team; always respecting the distance of security with a group of players that already carry several days training together.

At last, the new signing of the filial has been able to make the first taking of contact with the green of the Ciutat Esportiva. It does some days already happened the pertinent medical review; and although his signing is totally official and announced by the club, is missing to do the act protocolario of the signature, accompanied, as it could not be of another form of Xavier Vilajoana, responsible of the quarry and the feminine.
