"There's obviously been a lot of talk about Gabriel Martinelli of late, given his quiet start to the season and the arrival of Eberechi Eze. There is serious competition over on the left hand side now and Martinelli's struggles for consistency over the last couple of seasons has seen a big drop off in terms of his level of contributions."
"A lot of fans believe an upgrade is needed on the left of the attack and although Eze is a different profile of player to Martinelli, that left sided position certainly looks his best route into the XI. This is a big season for Martinelli, one that does feel pivotal in terms of where his future might lie. There was talk about him leaving in the summer, but I don't think that was ever really going to happen."
Gabriel Martinelli's future at Arsenal is uncertain following a quiet start to the season and the arrival of Eberechi Eze, which increases competition on the left. Saudi clubs showed summer interest but no serious offers materialized, and Martinelli reportedly would not have favored a Saudi move at this career stage. Martinelli has struggled for consistency over recent seasons, prompting calls from some fans for an upgrade. Arsenal would have required a substantial offer to consider selling. A strong season is pivotal for Martinelli, and Arsenal's stance on a potential sale could shift next summer if form does not improve.
