Barcelona are watching Arsenal striker Gabriel Martinelli at the World Cup.

Sport says Barcelona are scouting Martinelli in Qatar, knowing he's about to enter the final 18 months of his contract.

Indeed, Barcelona have held a long-term interest in the striker.

If Martinelli does not extend his contract with Arsenal, Barcelona could make a serious signing attempt in 2023.

Chelsea and PSG are also interested in the 21 year-old.
