According to a report from Brazilian newspaper O Dia, the following text concerning the future of Gabriel ‘Gabigol’ Barbosa was sent by Flamengo president Rodolfo Landim in a Whatsapp group.
“We pay him very well at Flamengo. I may be wrong, but there are few clubs, even in Europea, who could give Gabriel a better offer than us. But there is always the possibility. What we will not do is go crazy and what we will continue to do is seek out deals which can benefit the team.”
23-year-old Gabigol has been in sensational form throughout his loan spell with the Rio de Janeiro club having scored no less than 40 goals in 54 appearances across all competitions.
Flamengo and Inter seemingly had a deal over the striker but following his exploits in the Copa Libertadores final, Inter are believed to be demanding more money for him and Landim’s text would appear to suggest that the Mengao may not meet said demands.
