Alexis Bernard - Le10Sport: Lille are in advanced discussions with a club for the sale of Gabriel Magalhães. The club are in a delicate financial situation, which forces them to sell before the end of June. Leicester City, PSG, Arsenal and Everton are interested. He will cost around €25m and €30m.
Rumoured Arsenal target Gabriel has opened the door to a Premier League move, outlining his ambition to "go as high as possible" in the game.
Arsenal are reportedly lining up a £30 million ($37m) swoop for the centre-back as Mikel Arteta looks to increase his options at the back.
Napoli have also been linked with Gabriel, who has now admitted that a move to England or Italy holds great appeal to him.
A second Premier League club has made a late bid for the Lille defender Gabriel Magalhaes.
The player is expected to decide his future this week with Everton and Napoli the front runners to sign the Brazilian, however Gabriel has been made aware of a late bid by an unnamed Premier League club, thought to be in excess of £22m.
The highly rated central defender will leave the Ligue 1 side this summer.
