Club career
Resende
Gabriel and his older brother Guilherme Appelt Pires started their careers at Resende Futebol Clube; Gabriel signed his first contract on 23 July 2010.[1] He played his first senior season with the club during the 2011 Campeonato Carioca, the regional league in the state of Rio.[2]
Juventus
In April 2011, Italian newspaper, Tuttosport reported that Juventus F.C. signed both Gabriel and Guilherme,[3][4] however due to bureatic reasons, Gabriel couldn't move to Italy until after his 18th birthday. In January 2012 Gabriel officially signed with Italian Serie A club Juventus for a fee of €2 million, though the deal had virtually been complete since 21 April 2011.[5] After joining the Italian side, Gabriel joined the club's youth academy [6] and played the remaining half-season for Juventus' reserve during the 2011–12 season.[7]
On 30 August 2012 Gabriel was sent on a season long loan deal to Serie B newcomer Pro Vercelli, another Piedmont-based team,[8] along with Juventus teammate, Alberto Masi. Gabriel made his Serie B debut on 9 September 2012 as 61st minute substitute in a 1-2 home loss against Livorno in what would impressively be his first and only substitute appearance for the club.[9] He made his first start on 15 September against Sassuolo and went on to start the next ten league matches prior to suffering a major injury on 10 November 2012 in a home match against Modena F.C..[10] After four months on the sidelines, Gabriel returned to Pro Vercelli's starting lineup on 2 March 2013 in a 1-1 away draw at Juve Stabia. Gabriel remained in the club's starting lineup for the remainder of the campaign, making 25 league appearances and scoring 1 league goal despite the long injury absence.
The player returned to Juventus on 30 June 2013 and two month later, he was loan to Serie B side Spezia on 26 August 2013.[11]
