Mais uma vez, a rivalidade entre Gabigol e o Vasco apareceu longe dos gramados. Em papo com o influenciador Davoo Xeneize, torcedor do Boca, o atacante do Santos falou sobre o sonho de atuar no clube argentino e, no meio da conversa, sobrou para o time carioca.
O assunto era a relação dele com o Boca Juniors. Gabigol contou que recebe mensagens frequentes de torcedores argentinos e que o tema de uma possível transferência já apareceu em conversas.
"Muitos me mandam mensagem. É assustador. Não tinha noção de que gostavam tanto de mim", afirmou. "Sempre que vou lá, me dão camisas, me tratam bem, me levaram à Bombonera. Houve uma conversa para jogar no Boca. Conversamos sempre sobre isso."
Ele disse que ainda não sabe se a oportunidade de atuar pelo Boca vai aparecer, mas que pretende ao menos acompanhar uma partida na Bombonera, da arquibancada. Foi aí que a brincadeira entrou.
"Não sei se vou jogar no Boca um dia. Pode ser que aconteça. Mas é certo que quero ver um jogo pelo menos. Assistir da arquibancada, ver o jogo", declarou. "Ainda mais que ganhou do Vasco!"
A menção ao clube carioca veio no fim da conversa, quando o atacante falava justamente sobre a vontade de ver um jogo no estádio argentino. Foi o bastante para o assunto voltar ao noticiário.
Não é a primeira vez que ele provoca o cruz-maltino. O histórico cresceu enquanto o jogador vestia a camisa do Flamengo, período em que disputou clássicos e conquistou títulos pelo rubro-negro.
O atacante está no Santos e, antes, defendeu o Flamengo, clube pelo qual enfrentou o Vasco em clássicos cariocas.
