"A centre-back by trade, Tiago Gabriel is a product of the Sporting CP youth academy who is currently plying his trade for Serie A outfit Lecce. Standing at 1.96m, Tiago has been an ever-present figure in the Lecce defensive line, impressing onlookers with his ability in the air. His physical build also lets him dominate attackers both physically and aerially, making him a daunting presence for the attackers."
"This is perhaps the reason why Tiago is already attracting interest from big clubs, with Barcelona and Bayern Munich both interested in his services. However, the report adds that Lecce are not too interested in giving up Tiago in the ongoing January transfer window. The Portuguese centre-back is considered one of the pillars of the team and the club will not consider any offers unless a proposal is too good to refuse."
Barcelona are seeking defensive reinforcements in the January transfer window to replace the injured Andreas Christensen. The club can re-sign Joao Cancelo but prefer signing a centre-back. Tiago Gabriel, a product of the Sporting CP youth academy currently at Serie A side Lecce, has emerged as a target. Standing 1.96m tall, he is a regular in Lecce's defence and excels in aerial duels. His physical presence helps him dominate attackers. Barcelona and Bayern Munich have shown interest, but Lecce view him as a pillar, have a €15 million market value and a contract until 2027, making a January move unlikely.
