Arsenal have been handed a boost ahead of their Premier League game with Newcastle United on Saturday as Brazilian centre-back Gabriel Magalhaes has travelled with the rest of the squad, according to Con Harrison.
The scout and insider, who has been featured on the BBC and The Overlap and is followed by the likes of Ben Jacobs, Jacob Steinberg and Darren Lewis on X (formerly Twitter), revealed on the social media platform this evening that the defender is with others on their way to Tyneside.
Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta revealed earlier today that Gabriel will be available for selection if he can complete the training session today, and he has done that from the look of things.
The 26-year-old was withdrawn in the 52nd minute in the 2-2 draw against Liverpool on Sunday after succumbing to a challenge from Reds forward Darwin Nunez.
The Gunners centre-back initially went down following the knock, and while he managed to continue the game after returning to the pitch, he went down again and was taken off for treatment, with Poland international defender Jakub Kiwior replacing him.
While he did not feature against Preston North End in the round of 16 of the Carabao Cup on Wednesday night, Gabriel has not sustained any serious injury and is expected to feature alongside William Saliba against Newcastle.
