Arsenal will be without Gabriel Magalhaes for the Premier League game against Manchester United due to a knock, according to Team News and Ticks on Patreon.
Team News and Ticks – a Gunners account and insider – famous for leaking team news on the internet and followed by the likes of Dharmesh Sheth, David Ornstein, Fabrizio Romano and Gary Jacobs on X (formerly Twitter), has been a trusted source concerning all things Arsenal, and he has revealed the latest team news ahead of the game.
It is a massive blow for the Gunners, especially considering that Ben White is also unavailable, and manager Mikel Arteta will have to pair William Saliba with a solid option at centre-back.
🚨 Gabriel Magalhães is struggling with a knock and misses out today.

The Brazilian centre-back was withdrawn ahead of the second-half against West Ham United on Saturday, with Jakub Kiwior replacing him, and the Poland international could keep his place against Man United.
Gabriel has been carrying a knock for a while after he was withdrawn during the 2-2 draw against Liverpool in October, and it appears he has not managed to fully get over it.
Arsenal will be desperate to pick up all three points against Man United tonight to ensure they remain in the Premier League title race, and a tough encounter is expected.
The Red Devils have not lost any of their seven games across all competitions since Erik ten Hag was sacked as manager, and they will look to continue their form under new head coach Ruben Amorim.
Both teams have plenty to play for tonight, and they will need to be on top of their game to get the desired result at the expense of the other.
Arsenal will fancy their chances of picking up a victory at Emirates Stadium, but it will not come easy as Man United have what it takes to leave with one or all three points.
