Gabriel on new contract
Arsenal defender Gabriel vowed that it’s time to win trophies after penning a new four-year contract.
The Brazilian 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 team-mates, I love this stadium. I’m so proud and thank you for all the support. We continue together for the future.”
Isak tipped for Arsenal
Jamie O’Hara has claimed that Arsenal should sign Newcastle star Aleksander Isak over Viktor Gyokeres or Benjamin Sesko.
He told Grosvenor Sport: “The obvious position to strengthen for Arsenal is a striker – they need to get one in.
“They need someone big and strong who can get them 20 goals a season. For me, Kai Havertz just isn’t the man for the job.
“Alexander Isak, Viktor Gyokeres or Benjamin Sesko are the obvious choices in the striker department for them. However, the trouble with strikers who come over from other leagues is that they fail to hit the ground running – particularly players from the Bundesliga and Liga Portugal. There’s a massive difference between playing there and in the Premier League.
“I think clubs should be buying Premier League proven players who have been doing it week in, week out already. That’s why I think Manchester United have been quite clever by signing Bryan Mbuemo and Matheus Cunha – we all know they’re going to work for them.
“With that in mind, if I were Arsenal, I’d go and get Isak. I know it will be hard because Newcastle are in the Champions League, but Arsenal are a bigger club than Newcastle and could definitely tempt him.”
