Arsenal transfer news: Gelson Martins update after Sporting Lisbon hold meeting with ace
Martins has been on Arsenal’s radar for some time following an exciting spell in Portugal with Sporting Lisbon.
And the Gunners saw their chances of signing him rise this summer when it emerged he may be available for nothing.
Martins was believed to have cancelled his Sporting contract after supporters stormed the club’s training ground.
However, it appears that is not as cut and dry as thought, with Sporting making a last ditch attempt to keep hold of the winger.
