Paris Saint-Germain have begun exploring a potential summer move for Gabriel Martinelli, with early contacts already made as they assess attacking reinforcements ahead of next season.
According to reports in France, the club’s sporting director Luis Campos has met with representatives of the Arsenal forward to understand the conditions of a possible deal.
The approach is described as exploratory at this stage, with no formal offer submitted, but it signals growing interest from the Ligue 1 champions in one of Arsenal’s established attacking options.
Martinelli, who remains under contract at Arsenal until 2027 with an option for a further year, has featured heavily this season and continues to be viewed as a key part of Mikel Arteta’s squad.
The Brazilian has made 46 appearances across all competitions, contributing 11 goals and six assists, numbers that underline his consistent involvement even during periods of fluctuating form.
Paris Saint-Germain are understood to be evaluating several attacking profiles as they look to strengthen Luis Enrique’s squad, and Martinelli’s versatility across the frontline is believed to be one of the main attractions.
His ability to operate on either wing, combined with his pace and direct style, fits the profile of a player capable of adapting quickly to the demands of French football.
Despite the interest, Arsenal are not actively looking to part ways with the 24-year-old, and there has been no indication from the club that they are open to negotiations at this point.
However, with Paris Saint-Germain continuing to monitor the situation, the coming months could bring further developments, especially if the French side decide to formalise their interest.
Campos is also reported to have held discussions regarding another attacking target, Yan Diomande, as part of a wider recruitment strategy aimed at adding depth and competition in forward areas.
The 19-year-old has enjoyed a breakout campaign in Germany and is attracting interest from several top European clubs, highlighting the scale of competition PSG may face in the market.
For now, Martinelli remains firmly part of Arsenal’s plans as they push through a crucial stage of the season, but the attention from Paris adds another layer of intrigue heading into the summer window.
