Real Madrid’s interest in Arsenal defender William Saliba has been well documented in the media.
Just as they have signed Raphael Varane in the past, they are looking to make the young French defender part of their set-up after being impressed by his consistent performances over the past two seasons.
Carlo Ancelotti needs more options in defense after struggling with injuries to key players such as David Alaba, Eder Militao and Dani Carvajal.
Now another Arsenal player has impressed the European champions and it is none other than Saliba’s central defensive partner Gabriel Magalhaes.
according to filesReal Madrid wants to sign Brazilian center back Gabriel.
The set-piece specialist has been one of the best players in Mikel Arteta’s team this season.
Not only is he a great defender, but also a threatening presence on set pieces, just like former Real Madrid captain Sergio Ramos.
However, both Saliba and Gabriel are considered unsellable by the Gunners and Real Madrid have no chance of signing either of them.
They form one of the best central defensive partnerships in world football and their record over the last two seasons is proof of that.
Florentino Perez, the president of Real Madrid, often achieves his transfer targets as he has shown in the recent past with the signings of Jude Bellingham and Kylian Mbappe.
However, this will not be the case for Saliba and Gabriel as Arsenal have no intention of selling them now or in the near future.
Arsenal consider Saliba and Gabriel unsellable
Both are crucial to Arsenal’s hopes of challenging for the Premier League and Champions League.
The Gunners beat off competition from Tottenham and Manchester United to sign Gabriel and would be difficult to replace him in the market, which is why they will not entertain offers from Real Madrid for the Brazilian defender.
It could only happen if the centre-back pushes for a move away from the Emirates Stadium, but that is highly unlikely as he is happy at the club and determined to challenge for the league title once again this season.
Arteta has praised the Arsenal defender stating that since joining the club, he has gone to a completely different level and taken his game to world class.
