Arsenal have joined Manchester United in the race to sign highly-rated Lille defender Gabriel Magalhaes, according to reports.
The 22-year-old is on the radar of several elite European clubs this summer with Arsenal among them - although it is believed the Gunners are yet to follow up their interest with a concrete offer.
Lille are yet to decide where Magalhaes' future lies beyond the transfer window, Goal report, with the centre back weighing up his options ahead of his potential big move.
Indications from France suggested that Magalhaes had already decided to join Mikel Arteta's revolution at Arsenal, but the same Goal report has played down the speculation and insists that the player is yet to make a choice.
