2 unusual facts about Gabriel Rodrigues dos Santos


Gabriel Rodrigues dos Santos

Gabriel was impressive in his new role, scoring twice in the Greek Super League already (by 9 November) and gaining a place in the starting XI, ahead of the reliable Dimitris Salpingidis, the wonderkid Sotiris Ninis, and new transfers such as Lazaros Christodoulopoulos and Alexandre Cleyton.

For that reason, Panathinaikos' then manager Henk ten Cate used Gabriel mainly as a right midfielder or winger in 4–2–3–1 and 4–3–2–1 formations.
