Gabriel Martinelli, Arsenal's Brazilian star, has not performed at the level expected following his impressive 2022/23 season. Now sidelined with a hamstring injury, the 24-year-old has struggled for consistency, prompting the club to explore new options at left-back to enhance his gameplay. Reports indicate Arsenal’s interest in Belgian left-back Maxim De Cuyper, who is seen as a remedy for Martinelli's current issues due to his attacking capabilities. With Arsenal likely to lose Kieran Tierney and Oleksandr Zinchenko, they may find competition from AC Milan for De Cuyper, valued at 25 million euros by Brugge.
Arsenal believe an attack-minded left-back, potentially Maxim De Cuyper, could be key to unlocking Gabriel Martinelli's potential after a dip in form.
The Gunners have struggled to support Martinelli's attacking play, with current left-backs not replicating Oleksandr Zinchenko's attacking contributions from previous seasons.
