Hello everyone and welcome back to Inside Arsenal. In today's show I discuss Gabriel Martinelli, with a deal now on teh verge of being completed for him to join Al Hilal in what will be a club record transfer fee received by Arsenal. I also discuss last night's PFA awards, which saw Declan Rice miss out to Bruno Fernandes in the player of the year award.
