Brazil’s Gabriel Magalhães pulls out of squad for England and Spain games
Arsenal defender will hope to return for Manchester City clashGriezmann’s record run of 84 straight France games to end
The Arsenal centre-back Gabriel Magalhães will miss Brazil’s friendlies against England on Saturday and Spain next week because of injury, with Juventus’s Bremer named as his replacement.
Brazil’s coach, Dorival Júnior, gave no details on the injury when announcing the news, but Arsenal will be desperate for Gabriel to be fit for their Premier League trip to Manchester City on 31 March. Dorival said: “Today we had another casualty. Unfortunately, Gabriel Magalhães is uncalled. In his place, we’re calling up Bremer, from Juventus.”
