Arsenal have reportedly set their asking price for Gabriel Magalhães, as Saudi Pro League side Al-Nassr intensify their pursuit of the Brazilian defender.
Al-Nassr are looking to bolster their defense, identifying Gabriel as the ideal replacement for Aymeric Laporte, who is expected to return to Europe this summer. However, Arsenal are determined to hold onto their key centre-back and, according to The Sun, will only consider negotiations if they receive a bid of at least £100 million.
Gabriel has been a crucial part of Mikel Arteta’s defensive setup, forming a strong partnership with William Saliba at the heart of Arsenal’s backline.
The 26-year-old has played a key role in the club’s resurgence in the Premier League, making him a vital asset for the Gunners. Losing him would be a significant blow, especially as Arsenal continue their push for domestic and European success.
Meanwhile, Al-Nassr are also making moves off the pitch, reportedly in advanced talks to appoint former Newcastle United and Manchester United technical director Dan Ashworth. The club is looking to strengthen its football operations as it continues its aggressive recruitment strategy to compete at the highest level.
