Gabriel Barbosa, a 26-year-old Brazilian forward, is currently part of the FC Penafiel squad. His career has seen him play in various countries, including Brazil, South Korea, Greece, and Albania. In 2023, he made the move from Levadiakos to FC Penafiel. This season, he has managed to score 10 goals in 22 appearances, although he has been out of action since February due to health issues. With his contract set to expire on June 30, Barbosa will be available for acquisition without a transfer fee. According to Piotr Koźmiński of Goal.pl, Górnik Zabrze has expressed interest in signing him. Despite sharing a name with the more famous Gabigol, Barbosa is distinguishable by his impressive height of 195 centimeters and his early career links to Palmeiras. Górnik Zabrze, in need of bolstering their attacking lineup after coach Jan Urban's departure, considers Barbosa's free transfer status a notable advantage in their efforts to secure his signing.
