Gabriel Martinelli, Arsenal and Al-Hilal
31 August 2026
Gabriel Martinelli is set to travel to Saudi Arabia on Tuesday for an Al-Hilal medical after Arsenal agreed a deal worth at least £50 million. The Brazil winger is expected to sign a four-year contract with the Saudi Pro League club.
Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has made clear Martinelli is not in his plans, opening the way for the transfer. Al-Hilal are offering wages significantly above his reported £180,000-per-week Arsenal salary as they continue reshaping their attacking options.
