Real Madrid is reportedly interested in signing Arsenal player Gabriel Magalhaes to replace Eder Militao after the latter had a very serious knee injury.
Since his arrival, the 25-year-old center-back for the Gunners has been a constant in Mikel Arteta’s lineup, but on Saturday he was benched against Nottingham Forest.
Since then, there have been numerous rumors regarding his future, and now PL Brasil is reporting that Real Madrid is interested in signing the Arsenal player.
Real Madrid are monitoring Arsenal defender Gabriel Magalhaes
Three years ago, Arsenal acquired Gabriel Magalhaes from Lille, and he has excelled for them. The Brazilian has significantly developed over the years, and last season, he formed an outstanding defensive partnership with William Saliba.
The 25-year-old was frequently even better than Saliba, and he undoubtedly contributed significantly to Arteta’s team’s prolonged dominance of the league standings. Gabriel started on the bench against Forest on Saturday, and Arteta said it was a tactical choice, so he wasn’t hurt. We don’t know what has happened since then. Since then, reports have indicated that clubs in Saudi Arabia are eager to sign Gabriel, and PL Brazil has confirmed this.
To our astonishment, they suggest that Real Madrid are also interested in signing him. Eder Militao, who sustained an ACL injury last week and will soon undergo surgery, is being sought after by the Galacticos. As a result, he will miss a significant portion of this season. According to reports, Gabriel is being considered as a successor, and he’s really not a bad choice.
Gabriel is a “fantastic” defender, and we believe he is a vital member of the Arsenal team. The Brazilian possesses every quality required to develop into a center-back of the highest caliber. He is strong and combative, excellent in the air, and good with the ball.
Last season, he was among the Premier League’s top defenders, and since he’s still only 25, there is no doubt that he will continue to improve. Gabriel shouldn’t be allowed to leave Arsenal this summer, in our opinion.
