Barcelona have been linked with signing Vitinho from Palmeiras and the Brazilian club's coach Cuca has given his blessing.
Vitinho, 19, came through the ranks at Palmeiras and made two appearances in their Campeonato Brasileiro triumph in 2016.
"I've heard something about it. I think it's great for the player and the club," said Cuca after Wednesday's 1-0 victory over Atletico Goianiense.
"Here, we do not have B teams. He does not play here, but he has been training relatively well.
"If he leaves, if he stays, fine. If he does not stay, he will return much more prepared.
"A while back we had a B [team] to play. Tomorrow [Thursday] we have a [reserve] game against Sao Caetano and he is going to play."
Globo Esporte report Palmeiras are seeking a €1.5million fee for Barcelona to take Vitinho on loan until June 2018 and a purchase option of €15m.
