Tiago Gabriel attracts Premier League interest from Bournemouth and Crystal Palace

Tiago Gabriel, the 21-year-old Franco-Portuguese defender playing for Lecce, is attracting significant interest from English Premier League clubs. Bournemouth and Crystal Palace are reportedly competing for the player, who has become a key figure in Lecce's defense following his move to Serie A.

Lecce is seeking a transfer fee exceeding €30 million, reflecting the player's rapid growth and physical presence. The club has previously rejected a proposal from Benfica involving €20 million plus bonuses. While Lecce aims to maximize the value of the player, they may consider offers around €25 million plus bonuses to secure a significant capital gain.
