Forward follows Gabriel Jesus out of champions
Richarlison not in Tottenham’s Premier League squad
Arsenal have confirmed Gabriel Martinelli has joined the Saudi Arabian side Al-Hilal for £60m. It is understood the deal for Brazil forward includes a sell-on clause.
Martinelli, who joined Arsenal from Ituano in 2019, has fallen down the pecking order at the Emirates despite being part of the squad that won the Premier League title last season. His fee surpasses the previous record £40m received by Arsenal when they sold Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain to Liverpool in 2017.
Martinelli is believed to have signed a four-year contract worth about £17m a season. His move was widely expected after Arsenal agreed a deal last week and has gone through before the transfer window in Saudi Arabia closes on Sunday.
