Mari was amongst those rushed to hospital.

Italian outlet Gazzetta dello Sport claim the Spaniard is in “critical condition” along with two other victims.

Tuttomercatoweb claim he is conscious, with Monza CEO Adriano Galliani and coach Raffaele Palladino racing to his side.

A 46-year-old man has already been arrested by local police.

Officials have moved swiftly to reveal the attack is not believed to be terror related.

On the horrific stabbing spree, one eyewitness said: “Now that we are far away we are calmer, but we were really terrified.

“We did not understand what was happening, we saw people running away in tears.”

The stabbings are said to have occurred in the Carrefour supermarket in the Milanofiori di Assago mall on the outskirts of Milan.

The attacker is claimed to have grabbed a knife off one of the shelves in the store before going on his rampage.

Mari has made eight Serie A appearances for Monza this season, scoring one goal.

He joined Arsenal from Flamengo in 2020 but has made just 12 Premier League appearances.

Mari has been loaned to Udinese and Monza this year alone, making a combined 23 Serie A appearances, scoring three times.
