Paris Saint-Germain have made an approach to sign Arsenal winger Gabriel Martinelli, according to reports in France.

The 24-year-old is currently in his seventh season with Arsenal having joined in a £6 million deal from Brazilian side Ituano in 2019.

Martinelli has scored 62 goals in 271 appearances for the Gunners but has struggled for consistency in the Premier League this season with just one goal scored so far.

PSG, meanwhile, are in the market to strengthen their attack and have Martinelli on their shortlist ahead of the summer transfer window.

According to L’Equipe, Luis Campos has held talks with Martinelli’s representatives over a summer move for the Brazil international.
