Arsenal star Gabriel Magalhaes has once again been linked with a move to Saudi Arabia.
The Brazilian has been one of Mikel Arteta’s best players this season. He has been sensational at the back for the Gunners and an argument can even be made that he has had a better campaign than William Saliba.
Gabriel, who turned 27 last December, will enter the final two years of his contract in July, and his future has become a topic of speculation as a result.
Arsenal have opened contract talks with Gabriel amid interest from clubs in the Saudi Pro League, and the hope is that he will extend his deal.
But, what if he doesn’t?
What is Gabriel Magalhaes’ transfer value as Al-Nassr eye move?
If Gabriel becomes available on the market, several huge clubs will stand up and take notice.
The Brazil international is among the best central defenders on the planet, and he has proved that he can get the better of almost every attacker he comes up against.
GiveMeSport have claimed that Al Nassr, who Cristiano Ronaldo plays for, are really interested in signing Gabriel from Arsenal this summer.
The Saudi giants are so keen to land him that they are prepared to triple Gabriel’s wages and pay him €20 million (£16.8m) a year if he agrees to join them.
However, the report claims that Arsenal are unlikely to even consider any offer below €100 million (£84.2m) for Gabriel, who they signed for just £27 million in 2020.
But, how much is Gabriel actually worth in 2025?
CIES Football Observatory released the estimated transfer values of the top 100 players in the world at the turn of the year, and Gabriel was featured on that list.
Taking into account the length of his contract, the website estimated that Gabriel’s transfer value is €71.2 million (£60m).
Should Arsenal sell Gabriel if they get massive money for him?
Arsenal have always been terrible sellers and they haven’t yet had the luck of receiving big bids from the Saudi Pro League for any of their players.
Gabriel is being heavily linked, and if an offer does arrive from Saudi, it will be for the Brazil international defender this summer.
Arsenal are guaranteed to make a big profit if they sell Gabriel, but we think they shouldn’t even consider it – even if they receive a huge offer.
The Brazilian is among the biggest reasons why Arsenal have been so good in recent years, and losing him now would be a massive blow.
Arsenal are trying to extend Saliba’s contract as well, and we have a feeling that the Frenchman will have doubts if his good pal is sold this summer.
