EPL: Keep it up, your time will come – Brazil’s Cafu sends message to Arsenal star

Brazilian legend, Cafu, has told Arsenal defender, Gabriel Magalhaes not to lose heart over his lack of call-ups to the Brazil national team.

Gabriel has been impressive since joining Arsenal from Lille in 2020.

But despite his great performances for the Gunners, the 25-year-old is yet to be capped by Brazil at senior level.

Gabriel was controversially left out of Tite’s squad for the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar last year.

However, Cafu has now told the defender to keep his impressive performance up, adding that his time will come.

“Gabriel Magalhaes, keep it up. One day your chance will come.

“It didn’t happen this time but don’t be discouraged, things happen for a reason. Keep doing what you are doing, keep getting Arsenal where you want to be, the Premier League title.

“And continue your career. You weren’t called up this time but you could be called up in the future,” Cafu told FUTBIN.
