Barcelona have long-term transfer plans for Santos teen Angelo Gabriel

Barcelona have long-term transfer plans for Santos youngster Angelo Gabriel.

Barca secured first option for teenage Santos pair Angelo and Kaiky Fernandes earlier this season.

Sport says Barca want to see Angelo renew with Santos before he turns 18.

Then once he turns 18 years of age, Barca will sign him outright, with either the teen moving to the Nou Camp or being sold elsewhere.

Kaiky, 18, is a ball-playing central defender who in his first season with the Santos first team has already played a total of 37 games in all competitions and who is characterised by his leadership skills. He is a Brazil youth team captain.

In the case of Angelo, 17, he is a left-footed winger who has played 42 games this season with Santos, although he has only scored one goal and provided one assist.
