“Martineli is Arsenal’s special diamond” – Oleksandr Zinchenko heaps praises on his teammate

New Arsenal signing, Oleksandr Zinchenko has heaped praises on his teammate, Gabriel Martineli, calling the Brazilian winger Arsenal’s own special diamond.

Martineli has been instrumental to Arsenal’s run of form this season with four goals and a couple more assists so far in the Premier League. 

Zinchenko predicts an exciting future for his 21 year old teammate.

Zinchenko himself had a bright start to his Arsenal career until a recent calf injury has kept him away for four consecutive games.

Speaking about Martineli, Zinchenko said :

“He is incredible, he is a real diamond,”

he continued :

“I would say exactly the same things about him that I say about Gabriel Jesus.

“The way these two guys are working — how everyone is working really — every single day is unbelievable. He (Martinelli) has got amazing quality and he’s still young. I am pretty sure he has an unbelievable future.”
