Gabriel Martinelli left the Premier League to “clear his head” and for a “change scenery,” his agent now claims after being sold by Arsenal to Al Hilal during the summer transfer window.
There were “offers” to stay in England, his agent Marcos Casseb told Brazilian media outlet Itatiaia, although he did not name any clubs involved. The same, he said, was true of Germany’s Bundesliga and Serie A in Italy. The interview reads like an attempt to rewrite the narrative surrounding the Brazilian winger, who was being pushed to the fringes at Arsenal.
