Jurgen Klopp has continued to heap praise on Arsenal forward Gabriel Martinelli, which has left plenty of Liverpool fans excited.
The teenager netted twice last week in the 10-goal thriller at Anfield, making it seven goals in four Gunners starts.
Klopp was impressed with Martinelli’s display, and he once again spoke highly of the teenager in the week.
The German spoke about Martinelli and praised Arsenal director Edu for signing the forward over the summer.
Arsenal fan page @AFTVMedia shared Klopp’s comments.
Twitter: “It was not in this game only. I watch a lot of football, so I saw Arsenal’s Europa League games. ‘He’s 18, right?… https://t.co/B8UlPldJ1h (@AFTVMedia)
As expected, Klopp’s words got these Liverpool fans talking, with many excited over a potential future move.

Read Arsenal verdict
Martinelli’s brace on Merseyside last week has clearly caught the eye of Klopp.
The Brazilian has been one of the club’s shining lights this season, and if he continues to impress, Klopp could urge the Reds to make a move for the youngster in the future.
If Arsenal’s woes on the pitch continue, Martinelli himself could be keen on a move away from the Emirates, so his form and future will be one to keep a close eye on.
