After being out of action for three months due to knee surgery last season, Gabriel Jesus is ready to make his return to the Arsenal starting line-up this Saturday for the London derby against Fulham.
The Brazilian international was absent from Arsenal’s Premier League victories against Nottingham Forest and Crystal Palace, as well as the Community Shield against his former club Manchester City.
However, he is now back in first team training and Mikel Arteta is delighted to have Jesus back in contention.
“Yes, I am really happy,” said Arteta at his pre-match press conference. “It was a big blow after pre-season, but he is looking really sharp and ready to go.”
When asked if Jesus could go straight back into the starting line-up, he replied: “Yes, he is back. He is ready to go. We’ll see.”
The Gunners will be boosted by the presence of Jesus as they look to extend their 100% start to the new campaign against the Cottagers. Fans will be eagerly waiting to see if he will make his return to the Premier League on Saturday.
