The Brazilian defender Gabriel Pereira he is one of the best central defenders in the Portuguese championship this season. Owned by Gil Vicentein January he was very close to the transfer to England: on that occasion Leicester made a loan offer with an obligation to buy set at five million euros in the event of promotion but the agreement did not go through because the Portuguese club – in the bottom of the table – did not want to lose a key element of his starting eleven.
However, the matter will change in the summer, when in addition to Leicester there will also be other clubs: in Portugal Gabriel Pereira is tempted by Benfica and Sporting Braga, while in France he has ended up in the sights of Olympique Lyon. However, there is also an Italian club that is monitoring his growth: it is Udinese, a club that can sink the blow if it remains in Serie A. Its market valuation is around 6-7 million euros.
