Gabriel Martinelli handed new Arsenal shirt number as new home kit launched

It appears that Arsenal starlet Gabriel Martinelli will no longer wear the number 35 for the club following the official launch of next season's home kit.

The Brazilian international has enjoyed a solid season with the north Londoners, netting five Premier League goals and providing a further five assists from 20 Premier League starts this term. Now, he has appeared to have been rewarded with a new kit number ahead of next season, with the former Ituano star set to don the number 11, according to the club's official shop.

Uruguayan midfielder Lucas Torreira had previously been given no.11 but he has spent the last two seasons out on loan and looks set to seal a permanent move away from the Emirates Stadium this summer. Arsenal also announced that £5 from every new home shirt bought directly through the club ahead of the new season will go to The Arsenal Foundation to support local community initiatives.
