Inter Milan beat some of Europe's biggest clubs to the signing of Gabriel 'Gabigol' Barbosa, and many followed his highly anticipated move from Brazilian side Santos for around €25 million in the summer, but things haven't exactly materialised for the 20-year-old.
The expectation was huge, with many comparing the talented forward to his fellow Brazilian Neymar but after playing just 14 minutes in six months, Gabigol has already been linked with a move away from Inter.
Barbosa's agent Wagner Ribeiro has recently cast his clients future into further doubt, revealing that the player is not happy at the club and will move for first team action.
Ribeiro said the following about Gabigol's future at inter:

"Gabriel is not happy at Inter, aside from the great rapport he enjoys with his team-mates. The problem is on the pitch, because he is not getting the chance to play."
"I spoke to Kia Joorabchian and he told me about a conversation he had with De Boer shortly before he left Inter, where he asked him what was going on with Gabriel, and was told there was no problem."
"Then Pioli arrived and the new manager confirmed there would be opportunities, but until now nothing."
"Last week, Inter lost 3-0 and Gabriel stayed on the bench. If not then, when will he come on?"
Should he leave in the coming months or does Gabriel 'Gabigol' Barbosa have a future in Milan?
