Martinelli sheet for the year 2023
Martinelli, during this year, played a total of 33 matches between the end of the 2022/2023 season and the start of the 2023/2024 season, representing Arsenal.
Martinelli’s year was marked by a thrilling title race that the Gunners unfortunately let go in the very last days. Martinelli was important during this campaign, which also saw Arsenal fall in the first rounds of the competitions in which the club took part, namely the Europa League in the round of 32, the FA Cup and the EFL Cup in the fourth and third round.
However, Arsenal won the Community Shield this year against City. The Brazilian also had a meager participation with the Seleção this year, having only been called up twice, with only 5 minutes to his credit on the pitch.

Highlights in 2023:
Arsenal’s 2022/2023 league campaign
The 2022/2023 season was very special for the Gunners, and for Martinelli too. He came close to becoming the most prolific Brazilian in a Premier League season with 17 goals, just as the Gunners came close to winning a title which would have been historic given the battle fought between the Londoners and the ogre Citizen. Martinelli has particularly shown himself this season, being an indisputable starter on the left flank of Mikel Arteta’s attack.
