Santos are pessimistic about their hopes of keeping Gabriel Barbosa as a part of their squad in 2019. According to UOL Esporte, the Peixe, despite the evidence that the player next year will not defend the colours of the team he grew up in, they can perhaps console themselves with the fact that Gabigol does not want to play for any other Brazilian club.

Inter – as reported on the Brazilian website – agrees to negotiate the transfer of Gabigol only on the basis of €20 million, a figure which, at this point in time, is out of reach for Santos. At the moment, the uncertainty about the future of the attacker born in 1996 increases, the subject of which his entourage does not want to talk about.

It therefore remains to be seen where Gabriel “Gabigol’ Barbosa will be playing his club football next after his loan with his boyhood club expires on December 31.
