Gabriel 'Gabigol' Barbosa Linked With January Switch To Premier League Club

It's been a tough start to life at Inter Milan for Brazilian wonderkid 'Gabigol'.

Following his €25 million switch from Santos in the summer, the 20-year-old has struggled to break into the first-team setup and it now looks like a move away from Italy is a real possibility.

Gabriel 'Gabigol' Barbosa's agent came out and slated the treatment of his client this week, stating: "All we want is for my client to no longer be humiliated." - It now looks like a Premier League club will join the race to save Barbosa from his 'humiliation' in Milan.

Jurgen Klopp has lacked a huge amount of attacking reinforcements of late, with only Ben Woodburn available in attack on his bench versus Middlesbrough on Wednesday night, and now reports suggest Liverpool will swoop for Gabigol in the January transfer window.

Inter manager Stefano Pioli has even opened the door to selling the out-of-favour Brazilian, with agent Wagner Ribeiro suggesting he is unhappy at the club.

The addition of Gabigol to the Liverpool team would make sense. He would join fellow international teammates Coutinho, Firmino and Lucas Leiva while Klopp would no doubt get the best of his undeniable talent.


His agent Ribeiro went onto say: "We'll resolve this situation in January, he has a five-year contract but that doesn't mean anything if he isn't playing.

"He's unhappy right now."

A sure sign that Gabigol will leave if Inter receive the right offer.

Would he be a good signing at Liverpool? Let us know your thoughts.
