PARIS SAINT-GERMAIN are considering a swoop for Arsenal defender Gabriel Magalhaes, according to reports.
The Ligue 1 champions expressed an interest in signing the Brazilian last summer, but Mikel Arteta refused to let him go.
Instead, Gabriel penned a new long-term contract with the north London side.
The defender is committed to the club until June 2027, but PSG are hoping to tempt him to the Parc des Princes this summer.
According to GOAL, the Parisians are considering an offer for Gabriel.
PSG have not yet made an approach, but Luis Campos – the club’s sporting director – is understood to be keen on the prospect of signing him.

However, the defender wants to stay at the Emirates Stadium.
Gabriel joined Arsenal in a £27million transfer from Lille three years ago.
He has since made 118 appearances for the Gunners.
When the Brazilian signed his new contract in October, Arsenal sporting director Edu revealed that he will be a key player for the club’s long-term future.

“He has grown so much on and off the pitch, with both his contribution and communication on and off the pitch.
“We all look forward to seeing Gabi continue to grow as an important part of our club.”
