Montpellier signs Gabriel Barès, defensive midfielder and Swiss international

At 21, Gabriel Bares is already leaving his native Switzerland, his city and the Super League. The Hérault club formalized the arrival, this Tuesday, of the compatriot of Jonas Omlin. The young man (1m87) should play, in the long term, the linings of Jordan Ferri and Joris Chotardin front of the defense.

The one who will wear the number fifteen, who was followed by the recruitment cell and who constitutes a bet will be the only one left-handed in the midfield of the current professional workforce. La Paillade had not necessarily planned to recruit, but Laurent Nicollin had let it be known in 100% Paillade on January 3 that the club was open to a possible opportunity.

The duration of the contract has not been communicated by the club, but it would have been committed until June 2026. It is “preparing for the future” writes the MHSC in a press release. In other words, Gabriel Barès is not not recruited to be necessarily useful and used immediately and on the return phase, but rather with a view to next season. The time to “adapt”, therefore, for the one that some compare to Adrien Rabiot, in style and profile.
