That money could then be redirected towards another elite attacker, particularly with Arsenal still monitoring players such as Julian Alvarez.The key question is what comes next.Selling Martinelli only makes sense if Arsenal use the money wisely. He still brings pace, direct running and goals, so replacing those qualities will be important.Arsenal open to letting player join Newcastle United in late move The post Arsenal star’s agent in direct contact with club to seal €65m exit soon appeared first on CaughtOffside.
