BREAKING: Saudi side Al Nassr serious about signing Arsenal’s defensive powerhouse — talks already underway

Saudi club Al Nassr are reportedly seriously interested in signing Arsenal defender Gabriel Magalhães this summer.
 

Transfer insider Ben Jacobs reports that the Arsenal centre-back is attracting concrete interest from Saudi Arabia ahead of the upcoming summer transfer window.

Al Nassr are planning a potential move for the Gunners' defensive star, with initial talksalready having taken place with the 27-year-old.

Gabriel's current contract runs until 2027, and while Arsenal are eager to extend it, Al Nassr are said to be serious in their pursuit of the Brazilian's signature.

Jacobs also claims the Saudi side is prepared to offer a salary in the region of €20m, which would be three times what Gabriel currently earns at Arsenal.

The Brazil international is believed to be open to a move to Saudi Arabia before the end of his career. Arsenal are likely to demand a minimum of £100m to even consider a potential sale.
