Barcelona are prepared to offer €45 million in order to sign Arsenal star in summer. The player has been regular starter for Mikel Arteta but the North London club can still cash-in on him.
The star in question here is Gabriel Martinelli who is first choice left-winger at North London. He joined Gunners in 2019 and has so far played 209 games for them. He has registered 48 goals along with 36 assists in those games.
Martinelli holds a key role under Mikel Arteta. In addition, he is only 23 years old and still has many years to offer at top level. However, he still finds his future unsecure at North London due to dip in him form since last season.
Saudi clubs have shown interest to sign both Martinelli and Trossard. Infact, they offered £30 million to sign Belgian but Gunners rejected the offer. But, now the club is said to part ways with any one of them to generate funds.
Gunners need a new striker, winger, keeper and atleast 2 midfielders. Hence, they will need to let some of their existing stars go. As of now, Trossard has much higher chance to leave than Martinelli but the club can still opt to sell Brazilian if a right offer comes their way.
Barcelona ready to spend €45 million on Martinelli
According to Fichajes, Barcelona are willing to spend €45 million in order to sign Gabriel Martinelli. In addition, they may also offer one of their players to Arsenal to get the deal done. Lastly, the report says that Gunners will not let the player leave below his market value. As of now the player is valued at €55 million.
It will be interesting to see what decision the North London club will take in the coming weeks. As of now, their focus is to complete the appointment of Andrea Berta as new sporting director.
