In a recent interview, Gabriel Magalhães offers an in-depth perspective on Gabriel Jesus‘ role at Arsenal, addressing the criticism and support within the team.
Arsenal defender Gabriel Magalhães, in a recent interview with ESPN, shared his views on his teammate Gabriel Jesus, who has been under scrutiny for his performance in the national team but is enjoying a good phase at Arsenal.
Magalhães highlighted Jesus’ importance to the Arsenal squad, acknowledging his significant contribution despite the criticisms he faced.
“We know his qualities, that he is a great player and he is helping us a lot. Here at Arsenal, he is in a very good moment and he is a very important player for us,” Magalhães stated, reinforcing the positive impact Jesus has had at the club.
The defender also addressed Jesus’ self-critical remarks regarding his goal-scoring abilities.
