Arsenal misfit Gabriel poised to join Valencia in £10million switch

Brazilian defender Gabriel has struggled to settle in England and adapt to the Premier League after two and a half years at the club



Arsenal misfit Gabriel is poised to join Valencia in a £10m move.

Brazilian defender Gabriel has struggled to settle in England and adapt to the Premier League after two and a half years at the club.

It will be seen as a major blow for Arsenal’s recruitment policy as he was the first player initially identified on the basis of his statistics for Villarreal.

Gabriel joined for £15m in January 2015 with Arsene Wenger admitting at the time there is “always a risk” and that his stats on “interceptions, defensive errors, winning tackles” were key to him being signed.

Wenger said in January 2015: “If the numbers confirm the eye, it gives you more. If a guy comes home and says ‘I’ve seen a good player’, you can statistically observe this player for five, six, seven games.”

Gabriel struggled to hold down a regular place and now Arsenal have a depth of defensive options they are willing to sell with Valencia confident of getting a deal done.

It looked as if Gabriel might struggle to leave in this window because he is still recovering after a knee ligament injury suffered in the final Premier League game of last season against Everton.

But the deal could still go ahead with Arsenal keen to clear their decks as they look to trim back their squad with Mathieu Debuchy, Carl Jenkinson, Kieran Gibbs, Calum Chambers and Lucas Perez all available for transfer.

But Wenger hinted that Jack Wilshere - who has just got a year left on his Arsenal contract - could yet stay at the club despite there being interest in signing him from Newcastle, Swansea and Aston Villa.

Wenger added: “I think he needs games now. He might play again (for the under-23s) on Monday night but overall, what is important for him is the natural progression to be completely fit. He is not far away now.

“At the moment I think I plan for him to be here for the whole season, after we will see at the end of the season.”

GABRIEL JOINS VALENCIA

Gabriel Paulista has joined Valencia for an undisclosed fee, Arsenal have announced.

The Sao Paulo-born defender made a total of 64 appearances for the Gunners following his arrival from Villarreal in January 2015.

Arsenal defender Gabriel joins Valencia for £11m on five-year deal after just two seasons at the Emirates

• Arsenal defender Gabriel has joined Spanish side Valencia in an £11m deal
• The Brazilian centre back made 64 appearances for the Gunners in two seasons
• Gabriel has penned a five-year contract at Valencia's Mestalla Stadium
• He is the third player to leave after Yaya Sanogo and Wojciech Szczesny exits

Arsenal defender Gabriel has joined La Liga outfit Valencia for £11million after just two seasons at the Emirates Stadium
The Brazilian, who has penned a five-year contract in Spain, joined Arsenal from Villarreal for £15m in 2015 but has failed to hold down a regular place for the Premier League outfit.
He turned out 64 times over the course of the two seasons, but was often used as back-up by Arsene Wenger.
Gabriel made only 15 Premier League starts last season as Wenger's side won the FA Cup but missed out on the top four.
The Gunners have recruited Sead Kolasinac from Schalke this summer, who can be deployed either centrally or on the left-hand side of defence, meaning the 26-year-old Brazilian had fallen further down the pecking order.
Wenger is keen to further streamline his 32-man squad with Carl Jenkinson, Mathieu Debuchy, Kieran Gibbs and Jack Wilshere also expected to go.
Gabriel becomes the third player to leave the north London club this summer, following the exits of Yaya Sanogo to Toulouse and Wojciech Szczesny to Juventus.
