Martinelli has shown his talent throughout the season, the 18-year-old averages a goal every 130 minutes in all competitions so far. His good form has earned him a call-up to the Brazil under-23 squad, and if he continues to work hard and showcase to the world his talent he could well be playing for the senior team in the not so distant future. He's only going to get better, but the signs are already there that he's made for the top level which could mean playing for Real Madrid one day. Mari added: “Obviously he’s still very young, but he’s already had a taste of playing at the top level and he’s doing very well." “I’ll say congratulations when I meet him, but now he just needs to keep it up and work hard because he’s really talented.”
