WordPress: add new post after user registration if role is subscriber – Woocommerce

I have the following working code to create a new CPT entry when users register, but now I need this to happen only if the user has a subscriber role. This registration is processed by WooCommerce. I have another form thru Theme My Login for another users role.

$current_user = wp_get_current_user();

add_action( 'user_register', 'myplugin_registration_save', 10, 1 );
function myplugin_registration_save( $user_id ) {

$user_info = get_userdata($user_id);

// Here you can insert new post for registered users
$user_profile = array(
    'post_title' => 'Profile '.$user_id,
    'post_content' => '', 
    'post_status' => 'publish',
    'post_author' => $user_id, 
    'post_type' => 'profiles'
);

// Insert the post into the database
$post_ID = wp_insert_post($user_profile);
if ($post_ID) {
    // update ACF fields
    update_field('field_5e0f8b80071a9', $user_info->first_name, $post_ID);
    update_field('field_5e107dcfddc77', $user_info->user_email, $post_ID);
  }
}

I have tried with

foreach( $user->roles as $role ) { 
    if ( $role === 'subscriber' ) {
     // code here
 }
}

and

if(in_array( 'subscriber', (array) $current_user->roles ) ) { 
  // code here
 }

with no success.

How can I detect the user role and only if it is subscriber have the wp_insert_post ?

UPDATE:
the actual function, still not working:

add_action( 'user_register', 'myplugin_registration_save', 10, 1 );
function myplugin_registration_save( $user_id ) {

$user_info = get_userdata($user_id);
$user_roles = $user_info->roles; // array with the user's roles


// Here you can insert new post for registered users
$user_profile = array(
    'post_title' => 'Profile '.$user_id,
    'post_content' => '', 
    'post_status' => 'publish',
    'post_author' => $user_id, 
    'post_type' => 'profiles'
);


 if ( !empty( $user_roles ) && in_array( 'subscriber', $user_roles ) ) {

// Insert the post into the database
$post_ID = wp_insert_post($user_profile);
if ($post_ID) {
    // inserisco campi ACF
    update_field('field_5e0f8b80071a9', $user_info->first_name, $post_ID);
    update_field('field_5e107dcfddc77', $user_info->user_email, $post_ID);
     }
   }
 }

If I comment if ( !empty( $user_roles ) && in_array( ‘subscriber’, $user_roles ) ) it works fine

    I finally solved it by using 'woocommerce_checkout_subscription_created' instead of 'user_register'

    You are saving the user info inside of the variable $user_info. In your foreach you are using the variable $user and in your if clause you are using $current_user. I think this is the reason it is not working.

    I would suggest saving the roles of a user inside of a variable and use the in_array function. Your code can look like this:

    ...

$user_info = get_userdata($user_id);
$user_roles = $user_info->roles; // array with the user's roles

// Here you can insert new post for registered users
$user_profile = array(
    'post_title' => 'Profile '.$user_id,
    'post_content' => '', 
    'post_status' => 'publish',
    'post_author' => $user_id, 
    'post_type' => 'profiles'
);

if ( !empty( $user_roles ) && in_array( 'subscriber', $user_roles ) ) {
    // Insert the post into the database
    $post_ID = wp_insert_post($user_profile);
}
