Inter paid 29.5m for Gabigol
By Football Italia staff
UOL Esporte claim to have a document showing Inter offered Santos 29.5m for Gabigol, as Barcelona take the matter to FIFA.
The Blaugrana had an option to buy Gabriel Barbosa as part of their deal for Neymar, but Santos sold him to Inter this summer.
According to the Brazilian club, they informed Bar a of the situation three days ahead of time and gave them ample warning to activate their option.
Barcelona insist it was done too late and want compensation in the form of 3.2m.
The most interesting thing about the document published by UOL Esporte is the price of Inter’s proposal for Gabigol.
Until now the cost of the operation has been vague, thought to be in the region of 28m.
However, the document states Inter offered 29.5m.
This would be divided up into 11.8m to Santos, 11.8m to Gabigol and his entourage, plus 5.9m to Doyen Sports.
