Serie A giants could move for Gabriel Martinelli

Serie A giants AC Milan could make an approach for Arsenal winger Gabriel Martinelli when the transfer window reopens, according to Caught Offside.

The Gunners explored the possibility of selling the Brazilian over the summer, but they did not receive bids close to their valuation for the attacker.

The north London giants were eyeing £60 million to part ways with the versatile winger, but did not receive more than £40m from his suitors.

As a result, a transfer did not go through in the end, but the speculation over his future remains amid the increasing competition for places in the squad.

Noni Madueke and Eberechi Eze can also operate from the left wing. Leandro Trossard is also anticipated to compete for minutes in the position.

Hence, Martinelli's future is not guaranteed. AC Milan could swoop for his services in January if they get a lucrative proposal for Rafael Leao.

Leao has been on the radar of Saudi Pro League clubs for some time and there is anticipation that a big-money offer could arrive in January.
