According to Bleacher Report, Liverpool appear keen on adding Brazil international and Inter Milan striker Gabriel Barbosa to their attacking department this summer.
Despite arriving the Serie A amid huge hype last season for €29.5million, Gabigol couldn’t hit the ground running in Italy, playing just 9 league games; all as a substitute.
The 20-year-old seems to be considering an exit to save his career, but it would only be on a temporary basis with Inter not willing to cut losses with him totally.
The Reds are offering Barbosa a way out of his misery, and will do their possible best to secure a work-permit if he accepts to a move, but they have 7 other Premier League clubs to tussle with.
Another Brazilian, Roberto Firmino is currently Liverpool’s first-choice (makeshift) striker, while Dominic Solanke has joined Daniel Sturridge and Divock Origi to provide further competition and options.
Although, Gabigol had a very disappointing debut season in European football, his 600 youth goals during his Santos days hint at how prolific he can get in the right environment. Might Anfield be that to him?
