Gabriel Martinelli sign Arsenal contract extension until 2027

Arsenal have tied down one of their top young talent to a new four-and-a-half year deal through to 2027, according to The Athletic.

Martinelli's current deal was to run out at the end of next season, and while including an option to extend to 2026, did not reflect his place in the squad or offer the same security.

 With his deal running out and his stock quickly rising, Barcelona had been linked with a move for Martinelli, but a new contract for the Brazilian quells such speculation.
