Arsenal goalkeeper Bernd Leno has spoken to Gabriel Martinelli about BT Sport and has said that he is always ‘on it’ in training.
Martinelli’s mindset has been praised before by his Arsenal teammates, and now Leno is also registered as a fan of the young Brazilian.
Martinelli scored his first Premier League goal of the season for the Gunners last weekend against Sheffield United.
And it looks like Leno has high hopes for the teenager for years to come.

“He looks so sharp all the time because his mentality is incredible,” he said.
“I think you can hope there is much more to come because in training it is burning all the time.
“That’s why everyone is happy for him because he brings positive energy, especially in bad times, because of his body language and mentality. For our team it is very important ”.
Martinelli didn’t actually start for Arsenal on Thursday night against Slavia Prague, sparking some controversy.

The exuberant striker is already a fan favorite at Emirates Stadium, and Mikel Arteta’s decision to leave him out raised his eyebrows.
However, Arteta got the call right, as his replacement, Nicolás Pepe, scored in Arsenal’s 4-0 win.
Martinelli may now have a chance to start the weekend, when Arsenal take on Fulham on Sunday.
