Sky Germany claim the Turkish side have now tabled an opening offer for the Brazilian winger, with the Gunners set to mull over the approach. Mikel Arteta's side have already sold Leandro Trossard to Turkish club Besiktas and could have a complete new look left-hand side of their attack. They've signed Christos Tzolis to replace the Belgian international, but the club want to bolster that area of the pitch, which could pave the way for Martinelli's exit.
