Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal could sell Gabriel in the summer transfer window amid interest from Juventus, according to Tuttosport.

Tuttosport have reported that Italian giants Juventus are interested in signing Gabriel from Arsenal.

And, according to the report in the Italian publication, Arsenal are warming up to the idea of cashing in on the 24-year-old Brazilian central defender.

Arsenal should not sell Gabriel

In our opinion, Arsenal should not sell Gabriel in the summer transfer window.

Absolutely not.

Now, of course, every player has his price, and if a club were to offer something big like £70 million or £80 million, then, yes, Arsenal should sell the Brazilian.

After all, Arsenal paid Lille £27 million for the defender in the summer of 2020 (Sky Sports).

So, yes, if Juventus are willing to pay £70 million, then Arsenal should sell him.

However, we do not think that Juventus are going to pay that kind of money.

Gabriel is an important player for Arsenal and has been “really consistent throughout the season”, according to manager Mikel Arteta on the club’s official website earlier this month.

The £51,000-a-week (SalarySport) star has formed a strong partnership with Ben White in the heart of the Arsenal defence and is a big reason why the Gunners are on the verge of qualifying for next season’s Champions League.
