Barcelona are interested in signing Gabriel Magalhaes and are willing to offer players in exchange as part of a deal, according to reports in Spain.
The 23-year-old centre-half has become an integral part of Mikel Arteta's defence this season as the Gunners have progressed into a side capable of challenging for the top four once again.
According to Sport, Barcelona are in the market for a left-footed central defender and are now exploring the possibility of a move for Gabriel. The report says Xavi is an admirer of the Brazilian and the prospect of signing him has already been discussed amongst Barcelona's hierarchy.
