Gabriel Magalhaes signs new long-term contract



 Gabriel Magalhaes has signed a new long-term contract with us.

Since joining from Lille in September 2020, Gabi has become a vital part of our first team, making 81 appearances in all competitions.

The 24-year-old defender continues to grow in stature with impressive performances and is also a big goal scoring threat. He netted on his debut in September 2020, and scored five times in the Premier League last season.


After putting pen to paper on a new contract with us, Gabriel Magalhaes admitted that he's as happy as he's ever been with life in north London.

The Brazilian centre-back has excelled in our colours since arriving from Lille in 2020, and has proven to be a huge fan favourite at Emirates Stadium.

Our supporters will be delighted to see Gabriel commit his future to us, and the defender reveals feeling is mutual.

"I’m very happy to sign this new contract with Arsenal, because it's such a big club," he said. "It’s my dream and today is the best day of my life. I’m so happy to extend my contract here.

"Every game the supporters are pushing the team in the stadium. It’s why I’m so happy to stay here. Arsenal is my home.

"In the future, I want to win games for Arsenal, I want to win trophies with Arsenal and stay here for a long time because it’s my home."
