Chelsea are reportedly one of the clubs that have been looking admiringly at Arsenal striker Gabriel Martinelli.
The Gunners could do with tying up some of their best young talent with new contracts after an excellent start to the season, with the Daily Mail noting that exciting young Brazilian Martinelli is attracting interest from the Blues.
Martinelli has long been a hot prospect for the future since arriving at the Emirates Stadium a few years ago, and has become an increasingly important member of Mikel Arteta’s first team in the last year or so.
One imagines that Chelsea would do well to poach their rivals for the 21-year-old, who could be just what Graham Potter needs at the moment among their three forwards.

Chelsea have struggled to score goals of late, and Martinelli would surely be an upgrade for struggling players like Christian Pulisic and Hakim Ziyech.
Arsenal will undoubtedly be desperate to avoid losing Martinelli to a rival, so they would do well to get him to commit to a new, longer-term deal soon, as his current contract expires in 2024.
