3 clubs interested in Arsenal winger this summer Gabriel Martinelli is drawing summer interest from Serie A, with both AS Roma and Juventus considering the Arsenal winger, according to a report.

Benge adds that Martinelli won’t rush a decision, considering the significance of his next move. The winger has a year left on his Arsenal deal, but the Gunners have the option to extend that for a further 12 months, so there’s no great rush to sell or renegotiate his deal right now.

There have been some suggestions in the media that Martinelli could be for sale this summer, but it seems the player himself isn’t the one pushing those claims. The two reports on Martinelli should be seen in the context of Arsenal’s pursuit of Vinicius Junior , with the Gunners showing an interest in the Real Madrid star as his contract talks stall. Should Arsenal sign Vinicius, with Christos Tzolis already joining, that would certainly affect Martinelli’s situation.

The winger has often been used on the right when necessary, and he’s even spent time as a centre-forward for Arsenal, albeit less frequently under Mikel Arteta . If Arsenal receive a good offer, you’d expect them to consider it, but they wouldn’t be forcing Martinelli out the door just because they’d signed a couple of new wingers. He’d still provide a backup option right across the front line. The situation could still end up going multiple ways before summer window closes on September 1st. Photo by Mike Hewitt/Getty Images
