Arsenal FC has prematurely extended the defender Gabriel Magalhães, which is running until 2027. The 27 -year -old Brazilian came from Losc Lille to the Londoners for 26 million euros and has been an absolute regular in the Mikel Areta team since the 2021/22 season at the latest.
“I came here as a young player, and after almost five years I have learned a lot and have learned a lot. I am so proud of myself, it’s an amazing journey, and I’m so happy to continue it. I hope that I will win a few trophies with this club, because I love this club, and my family also loves the club,” said Gabriel in the club.
With 34 goals in 38 games, Arsenal made the best defense against the Premier League in the past season. Even if the 14-time international of Brazil was missing in the end of the season, it was an important part of the defensive. Since switching from France, he has been able to increase its market value from 20 million to 80 million euros – only three defenders worldwide have been rated higher.
