The heartfelt image was first shared on the Instagram story of his wife Gabrielle Figueiredo, later reposted by Italian transfer expert Fabrizio Romano with the caption: “Gabriel Magalhães on Instagram. ❤️🤍🥹.”

Gabriel, 28, seemed close to tears during his call with Gabrielle, proudly displaying his wedding ring as he reveled in Arsenal’s monumental achievement.

His gold wedding ring will soon be complemented by a gold Premier League winner’s medal this Sunday.

In the meantime, fans were quick to commend the center-back for his significant contribution to the title triumph at the Emirates.

One fan noted: “This guy has a warrior mentality. He truly gave everything for this trophy.”

Another remarked: “He left everything on the pitch and certainly deserves to celebrate.”

A third added: “This man exemplifies a good individual. May God bless your efforts with a UCL medal.”

Together with William Saliba, Gabriel has proven to be one of Mikel Arteta’s key players this season and a true leader at the core of Arsenal’s defense.

The Gunners maintained 19 clean sheets in the Premier League, with Gabriel playing a crucial role in 17 of them, solidifying the league’s best defense.

Additionally, Arsenal conceded only six goals in the Champions League this season, the best defensive record in the competition.

With Gabriel on the field, they’ve allowed just two goals—none of which came from open play.

This marks an unforgettable day for him, especially as he was also named in Carlo Ancelotti’s Brazil squad for this summer’s World Cup.

Gabriel is set to lift the Premier League trophy this Sunday as Arsenal faces Crystal Palace in the season’s final game.

Moreover, a potential greater honor looms as Arsenal battles PSG in the Champions League final in Budapest on May 30.

If victorious, the Gunners could make history as the third English club to win both the Premier League and Champions League in one season, joining Manchester United (1998/99 and 2007/08) and Manchester City (2022/23).
