Breaking: Benfica closing in on Inter striker Gabriel Barbosa
Benfica are open to sell the player on a two-season dry loan deal but Inter only want to sell him on a temporary deal for one season.
The payer’s salary is also a problem given that Benfica do not want to pay his € 2.7 million-a-year wages.
Talks between the two parties are ongoing but Benfica are the most interested in signing Gabriel Barbosa at the moment.
The Brazilian starlet joined Inter for € 30 million last summer but failed to justify his price-tag under Frank De Boer, Stefano Pioli and Stefano Vecchi.
Inter have already told the player’s entourage that he should be looking for a new team this summer and Benfica could be Gabigol’s next club.
