The Brazilian was spotted with the national team doctor after training on Sunday and reports claim that he has an edema in his right calf.

Martinelli trained with the Brazilian team as usual, but he is deemed doubtful to feature against Peru in the upcoming World Cup qualifier.

The attacker had a lively cameo off the bench in the late win over Chile, but he may not risked on Tuesday night after his latest injury scare.

Arsenal will be hoping that he does not feature either such that he can fully recover ahead of the Premier League trip to the Cherries.

The London giants are currently third in the top-flight with 17 points on the board, just one behind leaders Liverpool after seven games.

They are scheduled to host the Reds before the end of the month.
