Lille defender Gabriel Magalhaes reveals that he would be open to moving to the Premier League this summer.

Lille defender Gabriel Magalhaes has revealed that he would be open to joining a Premier League club during this summer's transfer window.

The 22-year-old is believed to be a transfer target for both Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur, while Everton, Napoli and Chelsea have also been credited with an interest.

A recent report claimed that Spurs had launched a €30m (£27m) offer for the Brazilian, and Gabriel has hinted that he could move to England ahead of the 2020-21 campaign.

"It is gratifying because there are a lot of teams talking about me," Gabriel told L'Equipe. "I want to go as high as possible, I came to Europe for that. England or Italy? Both are good championships.

"I speak a lot to Luis Campos (Lille's director of football) to see where it is best for me because he has a lot of experience. I also speak with my agents, with Gerard Lopez, with Jose Fonte.

"Gennaro Gattuso (Napoli's manager) likes me a lot? I don't know, we haven't talked. On the internet, on social networks, there are a lot of things coming out. I do not know what is true. I see every day, 'ah Gabriel goes there, then there'."

The South American could have already played his last game for Lille as the 2019-20 Ligue 1 season has been cancelled due to the coronavirus outbreak.
