Favorite to buy G. Barbosa - Turin "Juventus"

Foreign sources claim that Turin's "Juventus" has become the favorite to acquire the talent of "Santos" Gabriel Barbosa, as London's "Chelsea" interest in the Brazilian has begun to fade. The "aristocrats" linked with the nineteen-year-old have not yet made any official offer, so the "bianconeri" leaders hope to negotiate the striker's price down to 20 million euros. The Italian champions plan to offer the player a contract worth 3 million euros per year, while "Santos" is offering him just under 1 million. "The president talked about it (the new contract - ed. note), but nothing is certain yet. We need to solve a few problems - I have offers," Barbosa said. "It is really not clear whether I will sign a contract with 'Santos'. Gabriel Barbosa is currently considered one of the most promising footballers in the world.
