Brazilian head coach Tite revealed his 26-man squad for the World Cup on Monday. Arsenal pair Gabriel Jesus and Gabriel Martinelli were both rewarded for their good form and made the squad, the latter replacing Roberto Firmino in the group.
However, a full list of Arsenal’s senior Brazilian contingent was missed as Gabriel Magalhaes was not selected. The 24-year-old has had a good start to the season although there have been some big errors which have come close to costing the Gunners.
He was dispossessed by Aleksandar Mitrovic against Fulham which led to the Serbian scoring before Gabriel scored the Gunners’ winner late on. He gave away a penalty by fouling compatriot Richarlison in the North London Derby before the Gunners eventually went on to win.
