Flamengo striker Gabriel Barbosa open to Inter Milan return

Flamengo striker Gabriel Barbosa is open to returning to parent club Inter Milan.

Gabigol has been playing on-loan with Fla this past season.

“I had some chances in Europe, but I didn't get many," the 22-year-old told Tuttosport.

“However, I have no regrets or grudges. After winning the Rio Olympics, I thought about leaving because I had received some very important offers.

“I accepted Inter's for the kindness that the club showed my family and I, just like the Nerazzurri fans who came to greet me and celebrated my arrival at the airport.

“I arrived in Milan with great motivation because I liked the club's project and I was happy to start an experience in Europe, but things did not go as I imagined.

“I'm a hard worker. I had continuity in Brazil and always did well. I hope it can happen at a European club too. I'm still an Inter player, we'll see if it happens with them."
