"He's going to be a huge, huge player": Rio Ferdinand blown away by £90k-a-week Arsenal star after win

Rio Ferdinand believes Gabriel Martinelli is going to be a huge player for Arsenal in the future, while his partnership with Bukayo Saka could become something scary. Martinelli has been a key player in Gunner's last matches after making his return from a long-term injury. He has already managed to provide an assist in the Carabao Cup tie with Manchester City last week and contribute to the club's 3 - 1 win over Chelsea on Boxing Day. Meanwhile, Saka scored the third goal against Frank Lampard's side. And Ferdinand has suggested that the two youngsters have all chances to reach incredible careers. “I watched Martinelli at Bournemouth away last season, him and Saka together. And they have a link up, they have a relationship that’s already there that I think in years to come will be a scary relationship,” ex-Manchester United man told his YouTube channel. “They work so well together, and Tierney as well on that left-hand side backing it up. “But Martinelli, I have to say, is going to be a tremendous footballer, top player. He’s come back into this team and he’s showing what all the fuss was about before. He’s going to be a huge, huge player. Massive talent.”
