Galatasaray have earmarked Arsenal winger Gabriel Martinelli as an alternative to AC Milan’s Rafael Leao this summer, according to journalist Gianluca Di Marzio. Martinelli won’t be sold unless a marquee left winger arrivesThe Gunners were hot on the trail of Real Madrid star Vinicius Junior, and manager Mikel Arteta personally spoke with the 26-year-old regarding the project. The news is undoubtedly a blow to the Gunners’ summer transfer plans, given they seemed determined to bring in Vinicius as a marquee left winger ahead of the 2026/27 season. Arsenal are unlikely to entertain such a proposal from the Super Lig holders for Martinelli either. For now, Martinelli’s exit is dependent on a new left winger being signed.
