Arsenal fans have quickly batted away suggestions that Real Madrid could move for Gabriel this summer.

El Confidencial suggests that Gabriel is a potential target for Madrid, if Sergio Ramos is to depart.

But Arsenal supporters are desperate for the Brazilian to stick around at the Emirates Stadium.

And they suggest that Arsenal should bat away any offers that come forward for their central defender.

Gabriel has only been at Arsenal a matter of months, but it shows how good his form has been that he is now being linked with Madrid.

It should be noted that he is only said to be on a six-man shortlist, so the rumours shouldn’t cause too much alarm at Arsenal currently.

The Gunners look highly unlikely to sell Gabriel even if Madrid’s interest did become stronger, as he is considered a key part of Mikel Arteta’s squad.

Gabriel has been a regular starter this term, and he has been one of the North London side’s better performers, with the 22-year-old seemingly having a very bright future ahead of him.
