Palace linked with move for free-scoring Gabriel Barbosa – Could he be the answer for the Eagles?

Crystal Palace have been linked with a move for Brazilian striker Gabigol, who has been linked with several moves to the Premier League over the years.

The Brazilian, who is currently on loan to Flamengo in Brazil, has been lethal in front of goal, netting 18 goals in 18 games in the Brazilian league.

Gabriel Barbosa has struggled since joining Inter Milan, but has been in top form in his home country after joining on several loan deals.

Sports Mole report that Crystal Palace could be making a move over the winter as they look to solve their striker issues.

Jordan Ayew has been great so far this season, but other strikers such as Christian Benteke have failed to perform so far this season.

Barbosa maybe struggled at Inter, but he has very much thrived in his loan spells in his home country.

However, if he can continue his form in the Premier League, then he could be a huge asset for the Eagles.

The striker may have had a troubled past, but if he can finally start scoring in Europe with Palace then he could become a bargain for the Eagles.

matchday.
