Barcelona will not move for Arsenal centre-back Gabriel Magalhaes this summer, according to a report.

Barcelona will reportedly not be moving for Arsenal centre-back Gabriel Magalhaes this summer.

The Catalan giants have recently been credited with an interest in the 24-year-old, who has scored three times in 33 appearances during a strong campaign for the Gunners.

However, according to Mundo Deportivo, Barcelona are not planning to make an attempt to sign the Brazilian during this summer's transfer window.

The report claims that Gabriel's name 'has been discussed' by senior figures at the club, as Samuel Umtiti and Clement Lenglet prepare to leave Camp Nou this summer.

However, Xavi's side are allegedly not prepared to spend big on the defender and would rather attempt to sign Chelsea's Cesar Azpilicueta on a free transfer.

Gabriel recently said that he 'feels at home' at Arsenal amid suggestions that he could be on the move during the upcoming summer window.

The South American, who has a contract at the Emirates Stadium until June 2025, has scored six times and registered one assist in 64 appearances for the Gunners since arriving from Lille in September 2020.
