Arsenal keeper Aaron Ramsdale describes Gabriel Martinelli's finishing as 'frightening'

Aaron Ramsdale has heaped praise on his Arsenal teammate Gabriel Martinelli, describing the forward's finishing as 'frightening'.

The Brazilian has produced a number of top displays in recent months scoring four goals and registering two assists in his last eight Premier League appearances.

Ramsdale has to try and stop Martinelli every day in training and has talked the up the 20-year-old's pace and energy.

He told Ben Foster's podcast: (He's) rapid. But rapid with a brain.

‘If he gets a little bit more physical. He’s still a kid and he’s rapid, and his finishing is frightening.

‘I don’t know many Brazilians, but you get the image from when you watch their national team. You get the ones who know they’re good, but won’t really run. You get the ones who know they’re good and will run all day long.

‘He just runs all day long. He will chase anything down.’

Ramsdale himself has impressed since joining the club in the summer from Sheffield United.

The England shot-stopper has praised another youngster who has come through the Arsenal academy in Bukayo Saka.

Ramsdale said: ‘[He’s got the] world at his feet, doesn’t need to do anything stupid any time soon,’ the Arsenal goalkeeper added on Saka.

‘He’s got levels to go as well. His finishing is very good, but can get better. His right foot, it needs improvement… it’s very good at the moment, but he can get to that next level.’
