Arsenal defender, Gabriel has signed a new four-year contract, extending his stay at the Emirates until 2029.
The Brazilian was already under contract until 2027, but this new deal reflects his importance to manager Mikel Arteta’s project at Emirates Stadium.
Gabriel, 27, has been a key player for Arsenal since joining the club in a £27m move from Lille in 2020, making 210 appearances in all competitions and scoring 20 goals.
On signing his new deal, he said: “I arrived here as a young player and after almost five years I’m so happy and I’ve learned a lot. I’m so proud of myself, it’s an amazing journey, and I’m so happy to continue it. I hope I win some trophies with this club, because I love this club and my family loves the club, too.
“Arsenal is an amazing club and I’m so proud to sign a new contract. I love this club, I love the supporters, my teammates, I love this stadium. I’m so proud and thank you for all the support.
“We’ve done a lot of good things, and now it’s time to win some trophies. We continue together for the future.”
Gabriel missed the final two months of the 2024-25 season with a hamstring injury and his absence was keenly felt; Arsenal dropped out of the Premier League title race and were defeated in the Uefa Champions League semi-finals by eventual winners Paris St-Germain.
Meanwhile, the Gunners are hoping to complete a deal for Real Sociedad midfielder Martin Zubimendi, and are working to sign a new striker.
