Brazil have a prolific goalscorer in Vitor Roque for this Sudamericano U20. With three games left to play, he has already got six goals and has his sights set on a record.
The Athletico Paranaense striker wants to equal or overtake the nine goals that Neymar scored in the 2011 edition, which Brazil won in Peru.
In the first two matchdays, Vitor Roque was able to get a brace against Ecuador, one more against Venzuela. He then added another brace to his tally against Peru and a singular one against Argentina.
Barcelona are following the youngsters' performances. The Catalan side think he can be Robert Lewandowski's replacement, and they want to get ahead of the rest of the pack this summer.
Interestingly, Neymar went to Barcelona a short time afte the Sudamericano, as he arrived in Spain two years after getting the title aged 19.
