According to latest reports, there is a big possibility of Arsenal letting go of one of their key players in the upcoming January transfer window. It seems that both Arsenal and the player in question, Gabriel Jesus, are open to the idea of ending their association. Jesus, who joined the club in 2022 from Manchester City for a whopping £45 million, was an instant hit with the fans and was quickly included in the starting lineup.
In his first season, the 27-year-old displayed immense talent, scoring 11 goals in 26 Premier League matches and helping Arsenal come close to winning the league. However, things took a turn for the worse in the following season when Jesus struggled to replicate his previous form, going through a lengthy goal drought after Christmas and only managing to score one goal in 18 games. This season, with the emergence of Kai Havertz as the main striker, Jesus has found it difficult to secure a regular spot in the starting lineup, having only made six appearances in all competitions.
According to Brazilian news outlet UOL, Jesus is now contemplating his future at the club as he is yet to score a single league goal this season. It is also reported that he has had a tumultuous year behind the scenes, resulting in him parting ways with his previous agent after a legal battle. Despite these challenges, it is believed that Jesus could still leave Arsenal in January if the club receives a suitable offer. The Gunners are reportedly interested in signing Sporting Lisbon striker Viktor Gyokeres, but the Swede is said to prefer a move to Manchester United to reunite with his former boss Ruben Amorim.
In an interview earlier this season after Arsenal's loss to Inter Milan, Jesus expressed his frustration with his lack of playing time. He stated that like any player, he too wants to play more and contribute to the team's success. However, he also added that he will continue to work hard in training and make the most of his opportunities on the field. He also believes in his potential and is determined to help Arsenal in any way he can.
It is evident that Jesus' situation at Arsenal is not ideal, but he remains committed to the club and is willing to fight for his place in the team. However, if the right offer comes along, Arsenal may consider letting him go to raise funds for potential squad upgrades. Only time will tell what the future holds for the talented Brazilian striker.
