Arsenal player Gabriel Magalhaes pulls out of national team duty due to injury

Arsenal defender Gabriel Magalhaes will miss the upcoming international break with Brazil due to an injury.

The Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF) announced this news through an official statement on their website on Monday, March 18.

Although the statement did not specify the nature of Gabriel’s injury, it included a comment from Selecao head coach Dorival Junior.

“I had already communicated previously that we work with a slightly more extensive list. A pre-call, we can put it that way, and again, today, we had another casualty. Unfortunately, Gabriel Magalhães is uncalled.”

Gabriel will miss the opportunity to increase his international appearances for Brazil, as he has been capped six times so far.

His last match was a 1-0 defeat against Argentina in a FIFA World Cup qualifier in November.

Dorival also revealed that Juventus defender Gleison Bremer will replace Gabriel in the squad.

During this break, Brazil is scheduled to play friendly matches against England at Wembley on March 23 and Spain at the Santiago Bernabeu three days later.
