Martinelli gains value naturally with the national team, and his future sale tends to be the biggest in Fluminense history.

Origin in Xerém and status as a pillar of the Fluminense

Martinelli, from Fluminense, is one of the Seleção Brasileira 's newcomers. Graduated in Xerém, the player has become one of those who have worn the Flu shirt most in history.

Convocation by Ancelotti after John Peter's cut

Martinelli was called up by Ancelotti for Brazil's three friendly matches, after João Pedro's injury cut.

Last window: tenders closed at EUR 14 million

In the last window, new clubs knocked on the door of the carioca team in an attempt to sign the player but they heard no.

The maximum amount submitted by one of the clubs was EUR 14 million, something close to R$ 80 mClubs such as Nottingham Forest, Olympiacos, Besiktas, West Ham and Al Shabab have formalised their interest in the Rio de Janeiro club since the beginning of this year.

Effect of the call on the next transfer window

All these investments took place before the call-up to the national team, something seen as an important point of valuation for the player.

The player's Italian passport has already expired, which may facilitate a future exit. If it meets this high expectation, it will be the most expensive sale of the club, surpassing that of André, traded for 22 million euros, with three more goals with Wolverhampton in 2011.

Base reading and comparison with the Zubeldía period in 2026

Martinelli's link with the base is also part of the story: the coach of the player at the Fluminense base exalts his versatility, today in the National Team, with the phrase "Talent above average", and discusses training with the understanding that "Result is not the end".

The recent coverage still puts the phase of the team led by Marcão under comparison with Zubeldía's period in.2026 In the clip about Martinelli, the story continues linked to Xerém's base, ownership and call-up.

Current situation: protected present, more attentive market

The present is protective: Martinelli remains "non-negotiable" for Fluminense due to the player's importance and the decisive moment of the season, but the recent future has already changed.
