Any chance to avoid redownloading the game?
I don't understand how it works if I have the game already installed with GOG.

Sure! You just have to copy your 'gwent' folder of GOG found on C:\Program Files (x86)\GOG Galaxy\Games to your steam games folder C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common and change the folder name to GWENT The Witcher Card Game, then you click on 'install' on steam and steam will use most of the GOG files.

I did this, steam validated 2.3/3.6 GB of the game :AlmaHappiness:

I have Gwent installed in GOG but I don't want to have the game installed twice. Can I have Gwent installed only in Steam? If I uninstall Gwent from GOG and then install it here would it work?. And If so would I keep my profile in the game?.

I haven't tried that, as I only have it here on Steam, but I assume it would still keep your profile since I had to make a GoG account when I installed here on Steam. When you launch Gwent from Steam for the first time, it makes you sign into a GoG account (which it will always log into thereafter when launching). Since you have a GoG account, just use that one when you first launch it from Steam.

If I'm wrong, though, hopefully someone will correct me. gl

Yes you will keep the same profile since it uses a GOG account to sign in. Follow the steps in the 1st comment it worked for me transferring from GOG to Steam.
