Inter.

Dubbed the next Neymar, and also christened with the nickname ‘Gabigol’, big things are expected of the 20-year-old forward, who looked close to joining Juventus a few weeks ago and was also a potential new squad member at English Premier League champions Leicester City.

As announced on Inter’s official Twitter page, though, the Nerazzurri have won the race for his signature and have agreed a contract with him to keep his services until 2021.

The move comes after Gabigol was part of Brazil’s 2016 Rio Olympics football squad, where they won gold.

He leaves Brazilian club Santos for Inter after scoring 24 goals in 82 games during his four years there.
