In an effort to strengthen their attack after the departure of Romelu Lukaku, Napoli have begun contacting Arsenal to inquire about purchasing Gabriel Martinelli and striker Gabriel Jesus.

Serie A club Napoli have officially made their first moves to approach Arsenal striker Gabriel Martinelli. The Italian club has begun exploring the Brazilian forward's situation in preparation for strengthening their squad during the summer transfer window.

An uncertain future at Emirates and interest from Serie A.

Gabriel Martinelli's future at the Emirates Stadium is in a state of uncertainty. Links from Italy emerged shortly after Turkish club Galatasaray made a €45 million offer for the number 11 striker.

However, the Brazilian player is reportedly not interested in moving to the Turkish Super League. Martinelli prefers other top-level options in Europe or is willing to continue his commitment to Arsenal. In terms of contract, Martinelli's agreement with Arsenal runs until June 2027, with an option to extend for another year from the London club.

Napoli's attacking dilemma and the parallel goal of signing Gabriel Jesus.

The decision to pursue Martinelli stems from Napoli's urgent need to rebuild their attack. Following the departure of their star striker Romelu Lukaku, the Italian club urgently needed to find a quality replacement. The situation is further complicated by the uncertainty surrounding Noa Lang's future at the Diego Armando Maradona Stadium.

Notably, Martinelli is not the only Arsenal player on the radar of the Serie A club. Napoli's management is also closely monitoring the situation of striker Gabriel Jesus. The Italian team is considering the possibility of negotiating to rebuild their attacking line with the experience and ability of attacking stars from the English Premier League.
