Gabriel Magalhães Pens New Deal To Extend Stay At Arsenal

‎Gabriel Magalhães, the 27-year-old Brazilian defender for Arsenal, has signed a new contract extending his stay at the club until 2029.

‎He was previously on a deal with two years remaining.

‎”I arrived here as a young player and after almost five years I’m so happy and I’ve learned a lot,” Gabriel told Arsenal’s official website.

‎”I’m so proud of myself, it’s an amazing journey, and I’m so happy to continue it. I hope I win some trophies with this club, because I love this club and my family loves the club, too.

‎”Arsenal is an amazing club and I’m so proud to sign a new contract. I love this club, I love the supporters, my teammates, I love this stadium. I’m so proud and thank you for all the support. We continue together for the future.”

‎Since joining Arsenal in 2020, Gabriel has become a key player for the team, making 210 appearances and netting 20 goals from his central defensive position.

‎Last season, he made 42 appearances under Mikel Arteta before his campaign was cut short in April due to surgery for a hamstring injury.

‎Arsenal are in negotiations to extend contracts with several key players, including William Saliba, Bukayo Saka, and Gabriel.

‎They are also in talks with academy graduates Myles Lewis-Skelly and Ethan Nwaneri to secure their future at the club.
