| Gabriel Martinelli scores within 60 seconds after kick off against Liverpool |
Former Liverpool striker Emile Heskey has been talking about the prospect of his old employers signing Arsenal's brilliant winger Gabriel Martinelli.
The Brazilian has been in fine form for the Gunners this season, he scored in less than 60 seconds in last Sunday's 3-2 win over Jurgen Klopp's men at the Emirates Stadium before setting up another for Bukayo Saka .
Arsenal who are currently at the top of the Premier League table, have no intention of selling Martinelli , and the 21-year-old wouldn't be thinking of leaving his in-form side anytime soon.
But hinting that he would like to see Martinelli at Anfield in the future, Heskey has expressed his admiration for the young Brazilian.
He told Ladbrokes : I can’t see Arsenal letting Gabriel Martinelli go any time soon, but he’d definitely be someone I would be looking at if I was Liverpool.
If you look at that aggression in his game, and the way he’s played so far this season, there aren’t many out there with his ability. He’s up and down the pitch, non-stop, for 90 minutes.
"He’s got the ability to drive at players, pull them in and out of positions.
"He’s confident and comfortable on the ball to a point where, as a defender, you aren’t quite sure whether he’s going to have a shot, put a cross in or take you on. Players like that, you’re always going to want in your team.
