In a just concluded match, Arsenal striker Gabriel Martinelli hit two solo goals and had a fine assist to help the team to 3-2 reversal victory over Liverpool, its performance is remarkable, the British Daily Mail revealed that Arsenal is ready to negotiate with the 21-year-old Brazilian international contract extension, and plans to significantly increase its salary, from the current 70,000 pounds weekly salary up to 200,000 pounds.
Martinelli is out of contract in the summer of 2024, with the club entitled to a priority extension, and in light of the starlet's increasingly impressive performances, and to prevent him from being poached by other big clubs, Arsenal are determined to extend his contract early and intend to offer a £200,000-a-week salary, making him one of the highest paid players in the squad.
Currently, Arsenal only have two players, Gabriel Jesse and Thomas Pardy, earning £200,000 a week, and the club is planning to offer another young core, Bukayo Saka, a new £200,000-a-week contract, so this new deal Arsenal have given to Martinelli is already up to the top of the team's pay scale.
