This season, he has been a constant in the Premier League, scoring seven goals to help the Gunners go five points ahead atop the standings.

"Our supporters see his quality and energy every single time he puts on the shirt and he's the same every day in training, with his hard work and positive values.

"We're now excited to continue to develop his huge talent and look forward to seeing him perform with Arsenal in the years to come."

Martinelli made eight appearances for the Brazil U23 side before making his senior debut in March 2022.

He was part of the Brazil squad for the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, making two appearances as the Selecao reached the quarter-finals.
