For years now, thanks in part to Pantaleo Corvino’s vision, Lecce has established itself as a club that focuses firmly on the growth of young people, enhancing emerging talents with continuity. Numerous are the players who, departing from Salento, have reached important goals. Tiago Gabriel, a Portuguese defender born in 2004, could soon be added to this list.

Who arrived in January, the former Estrela Amadora is imposing himself with increasingly solid and mature performances, so much so that he is considered one of the positive surprises of this early season. The painful farewell of Federico Baschirotto, who landed at Cremonese, a direct contender for salvation, has opened up space for him, which he has been able to exploit first in the preseason and then also in Serie A with convincing performances.

The path is still a long one.

The path is still long, but there are those who already see the Lusitanian boy as a future capital gain, yet another product of a strategy that continues to give concrete results: Corvino himself pointed out how more than one big is following him carefully, he obviously did not name names, but it is no mystery that among them there is Milan at the forefront.

“I don&#8220t want to create pressure on the boy – Lecce president Sticchi Damiani said a few weeks ago as reported by Pianeta Lecce -: I would like us to enjoy him as much as possible, but today he seems to me to be a boy who can have the characteristics to become a top player. But we don&#8217t have the anxiety of thinking about the outgoing market”.
