Gabriel Magalhaes has signed a new long-term contract with Arsenal.

The Gunners announced the new deal on Friday. The 27-year-old will be in North London until June 2029.

“The 27-year-old defender arrived from Ligue 1 side Lille in September 2020 and has made 210 appearances in all competitions, becoming a key member of our defensive unit as well as scoring 20 goals,” wrote Arsenal.

“Gabi’s consistent performances earned him a place in the 2023/24 PFA Team of the Year, a season that started with silverware as he lifted the Community Shield at Wembley following a penalty shootout victory against Manchester City.”

Reflecting after signing his new contract, Gabi said: “I arrived here as a young player and after almost five years I’m so happy and I’ve learned a lot. I’m so proud of myself, it’s an amazing journey, and I’m 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 this club, 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.”

Gabi’s new contract is subject to the completion of regulatory processes.
