Gabriel Magalhaes has seemingly been ‘close’ to a move to Arsenal for over a week but PSG and Manchester United have now joined the race to sign him up to a deal, according to Sky Sports journalist Di Marzio.
Napoli are also still thought to be in the race, resulting in Arsenal having some serious competition from all over Europe.
Arsenal have had an offer of £26 million-plus add ons accepted by French side Lille but are still awaiting on Gabriel Magalhaes and his agent to agree to a contract rumoured to be over five years.
Fans of the Gunners could now be worried about the competition for his services due to the financial advantages both PSG and United have.

If this was the reason for Arsenal not completing the deal and him ending up at PSG or United, plenty of fans will be furious with owner Stan Kroenke.
Meanwhile, the 22-year-old is still thought to prefer a move to London, which will please Arsenal fans and it is still expected that a deal for the Gunners will go through if everything goes to plan, but things could get complicated in the next 48 hours.
