From Gabigol to Gabigoaway in a matter of months. Herald by many as the new Neymar and following in the footsteps of other Samba stars in Ronaldo and Adriano, it was no surprise that there was a lot of excitement for a new hitman at the San Siro.

It was a quiet start, with the €29.5m man starting on the bench before having a brief glimpse of him against Bologna in September. He then faded into the background again, with only sporadic moments for such an expensive player with only a single goal to show for it.

He even had to apologise to the fans for storming off after being an unused sub against Lazio and the club are reportedly looking to loan him out to try and get him settled in Europe. Never has the hype died down so quickly.
