The arrivals of William Saliba and Gabriel Magalhaes will offer a long and exciting career for the Gunners, but the former Chelsea star will be softening the duo that suits Arteta’s defense.
Luiz signed a new one-year contract extension and will be a flexible agent next year.
Gabriel has spoken of his admiration for Saliba, the duo that face others in Ligue 1.
“I know [Saliba] is a young player and if he joins Arsenal it is because of his quality,” Gabriel told Arsenal’s official website.
“We have some friends who are not unusual and I have played him before. He is a wonderful player and I am sure we will get along very well. “
Arsenal continued their momentum in the final period by beating Liverpool in the aftermath at the Community Shield.
