Club career

Earlier career

Fondly known as 'Cássinho', Gabriel started his youth career at Fluminense's under 20 side and went on to play for a number of Brazilian clubs such as Paysandu SC, Clube Esportivo Bento Gonçalves, Guarani, Anápolis, ASEEV-GO, Atlético Penapolense, Esporte Clube XV de Piracicaba, Esporte Clube São Bento, Botafogo Futebol Clube (PB) and Mirassol before joining Vila Nova Futebol Clube in June 2020.

Born in Patrocínio, Minas Gerais, Cássio can play on either wings or through the middle as an attacking mid, made 12 appearances for Vila Nova and has one assist to his name.[1]

During his stint with Fluminense's youth side, the Patrocinio-born midfielder was also loaned to the Croatian club Hajduk Split in 2013, the only club he played for outside of his homeland. With Hajduk, he achieved success at the Croatian Football Cup,[2][3] winning the title in 2013.[4]

Mumbai City

On 26 August 2021, Gabriel moved to Indian Super League defending champions Mumbai City, on loan from Vila Nova.[5]

On 22 November, he made his debut for the club against Goa, in a resounding 3–0 win.[6][7] He scored his first goal for the club, on 9 December, against Jamshedpur, in a thrilling 4–2 win.[8][9] He registered one goal along with five assists in 20 league appearances, as the Islanders finished on fifth place and failed to qualify for the playoffs.[10]

He was later included in the club's 2022 AFC Champions League squad.[11] He started in the club's AFC Champions League debut match, on 8 April, against Al Shabab which ended in a 3–0 defeat.[12][13]
