Arsenal defender Gabriel Magalhaes is reportedly on the radar of Barcelona, who could try to strike a part-exchange deal with the Gunners involving Memphis Depay.

Barcelona have reportedly identified Arsenal centre-back Gabriel Magalhaes as a possible transfer target.

The 24-year-old has formed a strong partnership with Ben White in the heart of the Gunners' defence this term and has struck three goals in 27 Premier League appearances in 2021-22.

Gabriel has helped Mikel Arteta's side keep 13 top-flight clean sheets in that time, and his form in recent months earned him his first call-up to the Brazil national team earlier this season.

The former Lille man's strong campaign has reportedly not gone unnoticed, with Sport claiming that Barcelona now hold an interest in signing him ahead of the summer window.

The report adds that Memphis Depay, Neto or Riqui Puig could be sent to the Emirates Stadium to sweeten the deal, and preliminary talks have already taken place with intermediaries.

Gabriel has totalled six goals and one assist in 62 appearances for Arsenal since arriving in 2020, and his deal in North London does not expire until 2025.
