Mikel Arteta can elevate Gabriel Martinelli’s game at Arsenal by repeating the same trick he used with Bukayo Saka and Emile Smith Rowe.
Ever since the Hale End academy graduates switched squad numbers and were handed a more important squad role, they have become two of the most key players for the north London side.
Martinelli, who arrived at the Emirates in 2019 for £6 million, could be the next youngster in line to enjoy a similar transformation after the number 14 became available following Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang’s move to Barcelona.
