Gabriel Girotto Franco (born in Campinas 11 July 1992), simply known as Gabriel, is a Brazilian and Italian footballer who plays as a defensive midfielder. He currently plays for Red Bull Bragantino.
Club career
Botafogo
Gabriel began his career at Paulínia in 2010, where he competed in the São Paulo State Championship Second Division in 2010 and the A3 Series in 2011. He competed for the São Paulo club in the 2011 São Paulo Junior Football Cup, in a group that also included Botafogo. His performance caught the attention of the Rio club, to which he transferred in the same year, playing from the youth categories.
In 2012, Gabriel, showing his potential in the youth categories, was promoted to the main team of the Rio team by coach Oswaldo de Oliveira. Over time, Gabriel stood out in the squad, earning a starting position in the Botafogo squad.
He was the undefeated champion of the Rio Championship in 2013 in both rounds.
At 22 years old, the player, who played 35 out of 38 games, finished the Brazilian Championship as the third place in the tackles category: he did it 131 times.
Gabriel was called up for the Brazilian national team in 2013 by coach Alexandre Galo, but was not released by coach Oswaldo de Oliveira, claiming that the defensive midfielder, then a starter, was very important for the sequence of 6 games of Botafogo, leader of the Brazilian championship at the time.
On 15 December 2014 Gabriel terminated his contract with the Rio club.
