Arsenal star Gabriel Martinelli wins £100 shopping voucher after showing class by going in for charity raffle

GABRIEL MARTINELLI won a £100 shopping voucher at a kosher supermarket after entering a Primary School’s charity raffle.

The Arsenal star showed his class by getting stuck into an initiative from students at Shalom Noam Primary School.

Martinelli has often proved to be a nightmare for defences with the ball at his feet

The school kids were selling raffle tickets in his Edgware neighbourhood when the 21-year-old, who lives in the area, decided to help out by buying a ticket.

Martinelli was then the lucky winner of the £100 voucher for kosher supermarket chain Sheffa Mehadrin.

The kind Brazilian then posed for a picture with kids from the primary school outside of his front door.

The raffle is just the latest thing that has gone Martinelli’s way this season as he enjoys his best year yet at the Emirates.

Martinelli has registered 13 goals and three assists and has emerged as one of the Gunners most important players.

The club sit eight points clear at the top of the league heading into the final stage of the season.

It is the best season Arsenal have enjoyed in almost two decades with Martinelli one of a number of young stars who has re-energised the fallen giant.

He could grow his legend at the club even further after signing a long-term contract earlier this season.

But Arsenal still have to finish off the job this season and face being chased all the way to the finish line by Manchester City.

The Gunners have a daunting trip to the Etihad at the end of April and more immediately must prepare to go to Anfield this week.
