Born in Pelotas in Brazil, Gabriel played seven seasons at Inter Movistar - a team with whom he won virtually all possible titles. He brings strength and inspiration in equal parts.
Gabriel (17 November 1980) arrived in the Spanish league in the summer of 2004 from one of
Brazil’s biggest clubs and signed for Barça after seven years of success at Inter Movistar
with a reputation as a born winner, who never accepts defeat.
Last season’s poor season for Inter can’t hide the success Gabriel enjoyed there,
winning a total of 18 titles -two leagues, two Spanish Cups, two Spanish Super Cups, three European
Super Cups, two European Cups, seven Intercontinental Cups - five of them consecutively- one
European Cup Winners Cup and one Copa Ibèrica.
In Brazil, Gabriel won two leagues, three national titles, one cup and two South American
Championships. A key part of the national team, he has also won a World Cup with Brazil, as well as
two Conmebols, a gold medal at the Pan American Games, two South American Championships and a Grand
Prix.
Profile
Inter Movistar has come to be known as “The Green Machine” because of
the talent of players such as Daniel Ibañes, Schumacher, Marquinho and Luis Amado, but it has been
Gabriel who has kept the machine turning with his strength, but also his technical skills. A fine
left foot with good distribution, Gabriel was Inter’s third leading scorer last season with
10 goals.
