Saudi giants Al-Nassr believe that a 'big offer' could convince Arsenal to sell Gabriel Martinelli this summer, according to a report.
The Brazilian has been in the news a lot in recent days and weeks, due to Arsenal's well-documented desire to sign an upgrade on him for the left wing. Martinelli is a solid Premier League player, but the Gunners feel that there are better options out there.
That is not to say that Mikel Arteta, who has nurtured Martinelli since his arrival from Brazilian lower-league football in 2019, is desperate to push him out of the club.

On the contrary, according to journalist Ben Jacobs, Arsenal have held 'exploratory talks' over a contract extension for the 24-year-old, who scored 10 goals and provided six assists in 51 appearances last term.
However, there is interest in Martinelli, and suitors believe that Arsenal could be tempted to sell him for the right price.
Al-Nassr want Martinelli
Jacobs states that Martinelli is one of the options being seriously considered by Saudi giants Al-Nassr as they look to add a high-level left-winger to their side.
The Riyadh outfit's top target is Liverpool star Luis Diaz, but there is still no clarity on whether a move for him is feasible. Earlier this summer, Liverpool told Barcelona that Diaz is not for sale, but there is a feeling that Liverpool would sell should a Saudi club offer a large fee.
Diaz has not yet indicated to Al-Nassr whether he would even be open to a move to the Middle East at this stage in his career, so there have been no serious talks over a move as yet.
Should Nassr fail to land Diaz, Martinelli would move into focus, and Jacobs states that the Saudi side are confident that they could get Arsenal to sell if they were to make a 'big offer.' Both Martinelli and Diaz have also been linked with Bayern Munich.
