Arsenal Star Defender at the Center of PSG’s Pursuit

Arsenal faces a significant task in the upcoming summer transfer window if they aspire to match the remarkable achievements of Pep Guardiola’s dominant Manchester City team.

Arsenal find themselves at a crucial crossroads. Mikel Arteta’s side displayed glimpses of potential during the 2022/23 Premier League campaign but ultimately fell short in their pursuit of glory, leaving the Spaniard with a clear mandate to reinforce his squad in order to bridge the gap between themselves and Pep Guardiola’s swashbuckling Manchester City.

Despite their near-miss, there were reasons for optimism that Arteta can build upon in the upcoming season, provided he can retain the core of his promising young squad. One shining light amidst the disappointment was the consistent and impressive performances of Gabriel Magalhaes. The Brazilian center-back demonstrated his mettle by featuring for 90 minutes in all but five of Arsenal’s 48 games throughout the campaign.

It comes as no surprise, then, that Paris Saint-Germain has reportedly shown interest in acquiring Gabriel’s services. As the French giants seek a replacement for the departing Sergio Ramos, the 25-year-old Brazilian’s name has emerged as a prime candidate. However, sources suggest that Gabriel is unlikely to be swayed by PSG’s advances, which will undoubtedly please Arteta and his plans for the upcoming season.

Furthermore, Arsenal fans can look forward to the return of William Saliba for the 2023/24 pre-season fixtures, adding further defensive depth and competition. With Gabriel’s impressive passing ability, boasting a solid mid-to-high 80s pass completion rate according to WhoScored , he has proven to be an excellent fit within the current Arsenal setup.
