Arsenal defender, Gabriel Magalhaes has reportedly confessed his love for Brazilian outfit, Corinthians and stated he would love to play for the club.
According to Goal, the 26-year-old claimed that he would gladly play for the Sao Paulo-based Corinthians, a Brazilian Serie A team, having been a big fan of the team since he was a young child.
The defender even said he would “join tomorrow” if Corinthians came calling.
The Arsenal star appeared on YouTuber Cartoloucos’ channel, and said [via ESPN Brasil]: “My favourite club? Corinthians, that’s since I was born.
“And today I don’t think it has to be any different. I still go to Corinthians games by train. It’s my dream, I want to play for Corinthians, I want to feel that energy.
“It’s something to think about. Sometimes I stop and think, ‘Do I dream of playing for Corinthians?’ I do.
“When would I play for Corinthians? For me, I’d be at Corinthians tomorrow. I hope it doesn’t take me long because I want to feel the energy of those fans, who are incredible, as soon as possible.”
The Brazilian and Frenchman William Saliba have formed a strong defensive force under Arteta. The Gunners had the best defense in the Premier League last season despite losing the title to Manchester City by a narrow margin.
