Appearance

Short, thick spikes of hair jut outward in a deliberately messy sweep above Gabriel's narrow, sharp-featured face. A firm jawline, wide intense eyes with bold irises, and thick angled brows lend him a fixed, focused look. He is built lean and athletic, tall and slender, carrying a long toned neck and arms that read muscular without bulk, hinting at agility and stamina rather than brute power. His kit is the France under-18 uniform, number 11.

Personality

Self-belief drives Gabriel, who thinks highly of his own game and refuses to bend to demands he considers unfair. When Hugo leans on him too hard and treats him as a mere tool, Gabriel pushes back openly. His temper runs short as well, and the moment Hugo brands him a mid-tier striker sitting somewhere around 130th in the world, he moves to throw a punch.
