Arsenal Fans Convinced Gabriel Magalhaes Transfer Is Imminent After Latest Instagram Post


Arsenal fans are convinced Gabriel Magalhaes is in north London and could sign for the club today.

It is believed that the Gunners could complete a deal to sign Lille defender Gabriel Magalhaes today, despite a late bid from Manchester United.


That’s according to multiple reports on Saturday morning, that claim the Gunners have made an “intriguing offer” to Lille.

United made a late move for the Brazilian centre-back, but Arsenal matched Napoli’s offer of €26m plus €4m add-ons, according to the reports.

This means Magalhaes is now very close to joining the Gunners, and bar a late bid from United, the deal could be completed over the weekend.

And now Arsenal fans are convinced Gabriel’s transfer is imminent following his latest Instagram post.

One supporter posted a tongue-in-cheek picture with joke annotations to signify why Gabriel could be in London.

Lille's president Gerard Lopez confirmed last weekend that several clubs had met their asking price for the Brazilian.

"He [Gabriel] is one of the players that we allowed to exit the club this summer, he asked for it and wants to try something else," he told Sky Sports.

"We clearly told him what our expectations were, we spoke to a number of clubs, our expectations were met by a number of clubs and we have given him the time to decide.

It is going to be entirely his decision.

"We tend to try and steer our players in certain directions, but at the end of the day it's the player's decision. I know he is going to make a decision early next week."

While speaking to talkSPORT on Thursday, Lopez gave another update on the deal.

That choice, I don't think I'm giving up too much if I say, it's going to be made today or tomorrow," he said.

"I couldn't tell you at this stage what it is. We've given him some recommendations but we don't like to talk in public because we don't want people to feel bad.

"We've told him where we think he could and should go but at the end of the day he and his environment make their choice and we support that."

UNSATISFIED Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang Sarcastically Responds To 87-Rated FIFA 21 Card As Arsenal Talisman Receives Same Rating As Last Year

It’s safe to say Pierre-Emerick Aubemayang isn’t very happy about his FIFA 21 rating. The Gunners’ talisman has been handed an 87 rating for the new edition of the game – the same rating he was in FIFA 19. And the Gabon international has sarcastically responded to his card with a laughing face emoji. Aubameyang had another superb season for the Gunners, hitting 22 Premier League goals for Mikel Arteta’s side – the same he managed last year. However, the 31-year-old played a pivotal role in Arsenal’s FA Cup triumph, netting a brace against Chelsea to seal a first trophy in management for Arteta. Meanwhile, it is understood Aubameyang will ‘imminently’ sign a new three-year contract at the Emirates. It is understood he will become the club’s highest earner on his new deal, surpassing Mesut Ozil’s reported £350,000-a-week wages. The report adds Arteta has been integral in talks to keep the 31-year-old striker in north London. Former Arsenal head of football Raul Sanllehi is believed to ha...
