Under the Dragon jersey, Vitinha has established himself as a potential holder within a team launched towards reclaiming the national title. So much so that he was named the best young man in the tournament.
Paris holds a solid block
Last week, Vitinha became the first summer signing for PSG, who paid around €40m (release clause) to secure his services.
