Arsenal striker Gabriel Martinelli agrees new contract

Arsenal striker Gabriel Martinelli has agreed terms over a new contract.

The 21-year-old star's current contract was due to expire at the end of next season but the Brazilian is set to stay on at the Emirates.

The Gunners did hold an option to extend Martinelli's contract by two years, but the winger's fresh new deal means he will stay until the summer of 2027, says the Athletic.

Martinelli has been thriving for the north London club this season, becoming a regular starter and netting seven times so far.

Discussions have come to fruition with the Brazilian set to see an increase in his wages from his current £70,000-a-week deal.
