David Luiz has singled put Arsenal youngster Gabriel Martinelli for praise.

The Gunners youngster was signed by Arsenal earlier in the summer this season and has impressed each and everyone. Liverpool boss Klopp also admitted that Martinelli is an out of the world talent.

As for Luiz, the Brazilian has always played for big clubs. At PSG, he has seen the likes of Lavezzi and Ibrahimovic and at Chelsea he saw the magic of Hazard. Hence Luiz knows what he is talking about when he praised Martinelli.

He said: “I always say, talents, I have seen many, but great mentality, I didn’t see many. And who arrives far? It’s great mentality, not just talent. I’m not going to say to you about who is the most talented [at Arsenal], but the best mentality at the moment is Martinelli. He is so mature for his age.

“He has a great mentality, especially because I know Brazilians at 18 years old. He’s a top guy, a top player, but what makes me more impressed is the mentality in the training ground, the way he reacts after he scores goals. [After] scoring at Anfield, he continues to work, not asking already, ‘I have to play, I have to play’. This is a great mentality.”
