The updates serves as more good news for Mikel Arteta's side, who have now secured the future of one of their plethora of young stars. Martinelli's previous contract would have expired at the end of the next campaign, though the Gunners did boast a two-year extension option in the last deal which would have tied him to North London until 2026.

The Brazilian has enjoyed a stellar season so far, netting seven goals to help propel his side to the top of the Premier League at the half-way stage.
