Juventus and Roma have emerged as potential candidates to sign Arsenal winger Gabriel Martinelli before the transfer window concludes.
The Gunners recently confirmed the departure of Leandro Trossard to Besiktas. He was immediately replaced by Christos Tzolis on the left wing.
Arsenal are likewise aiming to offload Martinelli this summer as they seek to land an audacious deal for Real Madrid superstar Vinicius Junior.
Juventus have looked at Manchester United's Joshua Zirkzee in recent weeks, but are now exploring a possible loan with a buy condition for Martinelli.
Roma have already missed out on Alejandro Garnacho, Mason Greenwood and Crysencio Summerville. Martinelli has now popped up on their shortlist.
Arsenal are unlikely to entertain a loan with a buy clause. They are likely to accept a conditional obligation instead. The Gunners want at least £38m for Martinelli.
Martinelli has only recently reported for pre-season training, but he is aware of the club's efforts to find a new outfit for him this summer.
