da apostaganha: Arsenal’s summer transfer business saw the club smash their transfer record by acquiring the services of Nicolas Pepe in a £72m deal from Lille, but it is the form of another attacking signing that is currently impressing a number of the club’s fanbase.
da bwin: Signed from Ituano in a £6m transfer, Gabriel Martinelli is yet to start a Premier League game for the Gunners in the 2019/20 campaign, but the Brazilian’s performances in the Europa League have been eye-catching to say the least – having scored three goals in his first two appearances.
