New life for Gabigol, back to smiling and scoring. Two games in five days and two goals for Gabriel Barbosa. Gabigol, could not dream of a more exciting return to Santos.
The Nerazzurri forward did not need to do much to regain the affection of his old fans Tuttosport reports sating that “In the state championship, Paulista, the opponents are not top-level, such as Ferroviaria and Sao Caetano, but meanwhile Gabigol has put his signature on both matches, taking off even a few pebbles from the shoe for the poor showing at Inter.”
The young Brazilian forward struggled to hit his stride in Europe at both Inter and Benfica but now he is off to a fast start upon his return to the Brazilian league and is hoping to work his way back into Inter’s squad for next season. Gabigol was loaned to Benfica in hopes of gaining confidence and experience to return to Inter, but he did not meet expectations and was sent back to Brazil.
