Arsenal’s defender, Gabriel Magalhaes, will be absent from Brazil’s upcoming friendlies against England and Spain due to injury.
Gabriel has departed the national team camp following the injury setback. The 26-year-old has been a standout performer for Arsenal this season, notably forming a formidable defensive duo with William Saliba, contributing to the team’s impressive defensive record in the Premier League.
Brazil’s head coach, Dorival Junior, confirmed Gabriel’s withdrawal from the squad but refrained from disclosing the specific nature or severity of the injury. Junior informed the media, “I had previously mentioned that we would be working with a slightly expanded list… Unfortunately, Gabriel Magalhaes is unable to participate. In his place, we have called up Bremer from Juventus.”
