Gabriel Jesus Exit Could Unlock Arsenal’s Move for Next Target

Arsenal head into next season with a revamped striking department. Viktor Gyökeres, expected to finalise the finer details of his Emirates switch this weekend, and Kai Havertz are set to battle it out for the chance to lead the line.

With two capable options now in place, it leaves Mikel Arteta’s 2022 summer signing, Gabriel Jesus, as potentially the biggest loser.

Initially, reports suggested Arsenal had accepted they could not offload Jesus due to his ACL injury, which has kept him sidelined for over six months. The club were said to be hoping he could return and reinvent himself next season.

Fresh Jesus transfer whispers begin to circulate

But now, a contradicting claim has emerged from an Arsenal insider.

The source reveals: “Andrea Berta is exploring the sale of Gabriel Jesus this summer, after clubs in Europe and Brazil enquired about his availability.”

This suggests that Arsenal were not reluctant to sell Jesus because of a lack of interest, but instead because they did not expect to receive any. Now, interest is there.

Despite injury setbacks, Jesus has shown his quality when fit. His technical ability, Brazilian flair and knack for making things happen have consistently set him apart. It is likely why clubs still see him as a valuable addition.

Having spent heavily in this summer transfer window thus far, bringing in talent such as Kepa Arrizabalaga, Christian Nørgaard, Martin Zubimendi, Noni Madueke, Cristhian Mosquera and Gyökeres, without any significant sales, Arsenal could find itself in a tight spot. Outgoings are needed to balance the books.

Could Jesus exit help land Arsenal’s final target?

According to the Evening Standard, the pivotal Eberechi Eze deal, expected to crown Arsenal’s summer business, hinges on sales:

“Looking at Arsenal’s spending and current squad depth, however, it feels like there would need to be some outgoings for Eze to come in.”

This aligns with a recent claim by @HandofArsenal on X, which reignited speculation over Jesus’ future and its link to the club’s remaining transfer priorities.

In the end, Jesus’ departure could be the move that transforms this into the perfect summer window – the kind Mikel Arteta has hinted he has never truly had at the club.

Lose Jesus for Eze? Jesus has become part of The Arsenal fabric hasn’t he?
