Arsenal defender Gabriel Magalhaes has been left impressed after Gunners winger Marquinhos scored for loan club Norwich City.
Marquinhosw was farmed out on loan to Norwich in January as he chases first-team action.
The Brazilian winger was snapped by Arsenal last summer with Edu impressed after seeing him emerge at Sao Paulo.
First-team minutes have been hard to come by at Arsenal.
Marquinhos has only played one minute of Premier League action this season.
148 minutes in the Europa League isn’t too bad, with Marquinhos bagging a goal and an assist.
Still, Championship minutes will be vital for Marquinhos and his development at the age of just 19.
Norwich are chasing a Championship playoff place and already have a Brazilian ace in Gabriel Sara.
That may have made Arsenal feel that Norwich is a great home for Marquinhos and the early signs are positive.
