Gabriel Martinelli has left Arsenal to join Saudi Pro League side Al Hilal in a deal worth $81 million, bringing an end to his spell at the Emirates Stadium.

The Brazilian winger's move to Riyadh represents one of the most significant outgoing transfers for Arsenal in recent seasons, with Al Hilal landing yet another high-profile international signing to bolster their squad.

Martinelli, who came through Arsenal's ranks to establish himself as a key figure in the first team, departs as one of the club's most recognisable attackers. His exit leaves manager Mikel Arteta with work to do in the transfer market as the Gunners reshape their attacking options.

Al Hilal continue to flex their financial muscle in the global transfer market, adding the Brazil international to a roster that already features several world-class names. The Saudi side's pursuit of elite talent from Europe's top clubs shows no sign of slowing down.
