Gabigol, formerly of Flamengo, has been facing a period of low minutes at Cruzeiro , playing mostly as an option on the bench. Last Monday (18), against Mirassol, the number 9 didn't even take the field.

" We are very confident with Gabriel. He is a high-level, high-performance athlete who is dedicated to the club. He has been given opportunities and is fully integrated into the squad," the director stated.
According to him, there's no sign of the player's dissatisfaction with the current situation. " Gabriel is super happy here at the club, let's be clear about that. He's never expressed dissatisfaction with whether he's playing or not, or whether he's part of the scheme or not. He's happy and dedicated, always available; he's a technical option," added Pedro Junio.
