Bayern Munich is reportedly targeting Arsenal’s Brazilian winger, Gabriel Martinelli, in a surprising move that could reshape the summer transfer window.
With Arsenal looking to offload players and reduce their wage bill, Martinelli is among those considered expendable, despite his strong performance for the Gunners.
Bayern’s interest in Martinelli comes as they seek to strengthen their attack alongside Harry Kane. After missing out on Nico Williams, the German giants have reportedly shifted their focus to the 24-year-old Arsenal star.
Other attackers on Bayern’s radar include Luis Diaz, Cody Gakpo, and Jamie Gittens.
Arsenal is expected to demand over £50 million ($67 million) for Martinelli, who joined the club in 2019 and has since made 225 appearances, scoring 51 goals. His contract runs until 2027.
This potential transfer is a key development as Arsenal prepares for its pre-season, with several high-profile player futures hanging in the balance.
