Gabriel Magalhaes has shared his feelings about Arsenal fans singing his dedicated song.
The defender has become a hero to the Gunners, as he is now one of their best players.
Mikel Arteta’s side has been in fantastic form for much of the last two seasons, and Gabriel joined them in the first summer the manager spent at the helm.
He has endured several tough times and remains one of the group’s most outstanding talents.
Arsenal fans have enjoyed his blossoming defensive partnership with William Saliba and have created a song for the Brazilian in appreciation of his contributions.
While speaking to Arsenal Media recently, he admits he loves the song, and it means so much to him.
The defender said:
“Whenever I hear my own song as well… wow, it’s incredible.
“I’m so happy about that – it’s a dream for me. I always want to thank the Gunners fans for that, because I love it. I think it was my wife who heard it first on social media. She was so happy too.”
Just Arsenal Opinion
Saliba has earned most of the praise, but Gabriel has been a terrific partner for the Frenchman.
On his own, he has scored some hugely important goals for us and has hardly been found wanting in carrying out his defensive duties, so he deserves all the love he is getting.

I’ll be the first to ask the obvious…what is the song?🤔
I took the trouble to find out for myself.
The lyrics go:
“You’ll fall in love, I know you will, our number 6 is the king of Brazil!
“Our centre half, he’ll give you hell. Our wall at the back is Gabriel.
“Ole ole, ole ola!”
I don’t know if there’s a tune to go with this or if it’s just a chant.
It’s technically incorrect, as they don’t have a king in Brazil 😱
There is a tune Jax, but I ain’t got a Scooby what it is #oldgit
Doesn’t really matter HD, as I doubt that I’ll be singing along. I’m a bit of a silent supporter.
Jax, do you get to The Emirates these days?
The songs keep coming, it seems, week after week.
I have to ask my daughter and grandson what the words are!!
Love the comments from Gabriel and all the other players come to that!!
MA has certainly built a family relationship and included the fans in it.
Ken. I’ve not been since 2013 (I think) when I surrendered my ST.. I just wont go to London for any reason at all these days.
Jax, I guessed you had been a season ticket holder at one time, from your posts and views.
Such a shame you won’t visit London again, not even for The Arsenal.
At least you know what The Emirates is all about.
Some of our fellow Gooners will never get the chance to visit.
Ken, I was in the family section, row 15, right level with the penalty area line, so had a decent enough view. I moved out of London 2009 and travelled in from the west.
I admire the distance supporters, especially those that come from across the world, when I can’t be arsed to travel 150 miles, but Iike other oldies I’d been going since the mid 1950’s, so have done my ‘time’.
