Martinelli has been one of the standout performers for Arsenal during their brilliant early-season form, contributing five goals and two assists in 12 Premier League games so far. As Mirror Football reported last month, the 21-year-old is in line for a new contract, along with Bukayo Saka and William Saliba. The Brazilian forward is currently under contract with Arsenal until June 2024, while the club also holds the option to extend that deal for a further year.

Speaking ahead of Arsenal's final Europa League game against FC Zurich on Thursday, Martinelli said he would be delighted to sign a new contract. 'I'm very happy at Arsenal,' he told reporters. 'I've said it many times. This is my club. I love to be here. I love the city, I love the club, I love everything about Arsenal. So I want to stay, I'm very happy.' He was then asked if he just needed a pen to sign a new contract. He replied: 'Yeah, I just need a pen!'
