Arsenal attacker Gabriel Martinelli could be on the verge of departing the North London club, as talks for his move to Saudi giants Al Hilal are reportedly in the final stages. According to Fabrizio Romano, the clubs are close to agreeing on a comprehensive fee package that is said to be over €65 million.

This development comes just one week after an exclusive report indicated that Gabriel was included on Al Hilal's target list. Romano suggests that the club-to-club deal is now almost closed, with Arsenal having given their 'green light' for the transfer to proceed.

The ultimate decision, however, now rests with Gabriel Martinelli and his representatives. While the clubs appear to have found common ground, the player's personal terms and willingness to make the switch will be the determining factors in whether the move officially goes through.
