Santos attackers Lucas Lima and Gabriel Barbosa have both admitted that they are unsure whether they will remain at Santos after this summer’s internationals. 19 year old Gabigol is one of the most sought after young players on the continent and 25 year old Lucas Lima almost left in January.

Gabigol will feature in the Copa América and the Olympics, whilst Lucas Lima will sport the famous number 10 shirt for Brazil in the USA in June. Gabigol told Lance! "It"s difficult to say, I cannot confirm anything, but I"m very happy at Santos.

“It is always a privilege to play in the Vila [Belmiro] with the fans beside us. I"ll get plenty of rest and go to the national team. If I go back or not, we will see more in the future."

Meanwhile playmaker Lucas Lima, who is constantly linked with moves to Europe, told Globo, "I do not know [if I have played my last Santos match]. It could be yes, it could be no. I personally do not feel that it was my last game in my heart, but you cannot guarantee anything.

"There is [a possibility of negotiations]. The window will open and a lot can happen. I have a great affection for Santos and we"ll see what happens. Everyone is watching, more so for the national team. I know that the Copa America is also important for me because of this – it is an added incentive for me to stand out."
