Arsenal defender Gabriel Magalhaes has signed a contract extension with the Gunners which will keep him at the club until 2029.
Arsenal confirmed the news of Gabriel Magalhaes contract on its official website on Friday, June 6, 2025. The Brazilian was already under contract until 2027, but this new deal is to secure his future at the Emirates to help fend away any potential suitor.
Gabriel was excited after the new deal was confirmed, the Brazilian expressed his delight during his interview.
He said,
“I arrived here as a young player and after almost five years I’m so happy and I’ve learned a lot. I am so proud of myself, it’s an amazing journey, and I am so happy to continue it. I hope I win some trophies with this club, because I love this club and my family loves the club, too. Arsenal is an amazing club and I’m so proud to sign a new contract. I love the supporters, my teammates, I love this stadium. I’m so proud and thank you for all the support. We continue together for the future.”
Gabriel has been a key player for Arsenal since joining the club in a £27m move from Lille in 2020, making 210 appearances in all competitions.
However, he missed the final two months of the 2024/25 season with a hamstring injury and his absence was a big blow. This saw Arsenal drop out of the Premier League title race and were defeated in the Uefa Champions League semi-finals by eventual winners Paris St-Germain.
