During a recent media briefing at Real Madrid, coach Carlo Ancelotti made a compelling plea to his player Vinicius Jr., encouraging him to persuade his compatriot and Arsenal sensation Gabriel Martinelli to join Real Madrid this summer.
Ancelotti, known for his tactical acumen and talent scouting, sees Martinelli as a vital addition to Real Madrid’s attacking lineup. Despite interest from various top European clubs and a hefty price tag of £70 million, Ancelotti is resolute in his desire to bring Martinelli to the Bernabeu.

Vinicius Jr., thriving under Ancelotti’s coaching, expressed his admiration for Martinelli’s abilities and his enthusiasm to share the field with him at Real Madrid.
Martinelli, famed for his explosive pace, clinical goal-scoring, and relentless work ethic, has left a significant mark since his move to Arsenal from Ituano in 2019. Despite his youth, the 21-year-old has shown maturity on the pitch, earning accolades from fans and experts alike.
The prospect of Martinelli teaming up with Vinicius Jr., alongside stars like Karim Benzema and Eden Hazard, has sent ripples across the footballing community. Real Madrid, perennial contenders for domestic and European honors, are keen on fortifying their squad for the upcoming season, with Martinelli’s potential transfer symbolizing their ambition to regain their status as Europe’s top club.
As the summer transfer window approaches, all eyes are on Vinicius Jr. and his efforts to sway Martinelli from the Emirates Stadium to Real Madrid’s iconic white jersey. With Ancelotti’s backing and the allure of competing at the highest echelons, Martinelli may soon embark on a new journey in his blossoming career at one of football’s most prestigious clubs.
