Arsenal fans rally behind Gabriel as shirt sales soar 350% after penalty miss

VIA THE ATHLETIC ON X:

Shirt sales for Arsenal defender Gabriel increased by 350 per cent after the centre-back missed a crucial penalty in his side’s Champions League final defeat on Saturday.

Gabriel, 28, took the final penalty in the shootout, but his effort went over the bar, and Paris Saint-Germain were crowned Champions League winners for the second consecutive season.

However, despite the disappointment for the Brazilian, fans have responded by buying his shirt en masse. The 28-year-old became the top-selling name printed on shirts over the weekend.

At one point, sales of the Brazil international’s shirt doubled those of any other shirt being sold.
