21-year-old Santos goalkeeper Gabriel Gasparotto, who has no space in the first team under coach Dorival Júnior, is close to taking his Italian citizenship.
The player was released from training by Santos in the last few days and traveled to Italy to resolve the last issues of the process. Gasparotto won the Copa São Paulo de Futebol Júnior and U20 Copa do Brasil with the club’s youth team, and has been monitored by Italian teams since last season. According to the report from Globo Esporte, the goalkeeper is expected to be loaned out next year to gain experience at another club. Gasparotto was promoted to the professionals in 2013, but he’s yet to make his début for Santos, and has just made some appearances in the substitutes bench. Currently, Vanderlei and Vladimir are the first two options of Dorival Júnior for the goalkeeping position.
