Will Gabriel Jesus leave Arsenal in January?

There have been further media reports claiming that a number of Italian clubs are now interested in signing Arsenal’s Gabriel Jesus in the January transfer window.

Jesus has during his time at ARSENAL and missed the start of the season with an ACL injury suffered last season, but since returning to action after a long-term injury he has scored three goals and provided one assist in 12 games in all competitions for the Gunners, in just 415 minutes of football.

His performance in the Champions League against Inter Milan made it clear why Mikel Arteta wants Jesus in the squad, but that has not stopped all speculation about a possible departure at the end of the season.

And reports in Italy claim that AC Milan and Juventus are keen on a move for Arsenal striker Gabriel Jesus. IT transfer market claim the 28-year-old, whose contract expires this summer, would be available for a fee of around €20m (£17m).

However, the Brazilian does not want to leave ARSENAL and Gabriel Jesus has told the club to offer him a new contract so he can fulfill his dream of winning multiple trophies at the club: ‘I want to extend my contract, I want to stay, I want to win trophies with Arsenal because I came here with that purpose and that’s it.

“But of course the reality is sometimes different. Sometimes you have to go in a different direction, but my focus is on staying healthy and winning trophies with Arsenal.”

There have been times in recent seasons when Gabriel Jesus has been quality, he works so hard for the club and puts in some solid performances, but there have been far more times when he has been out with an injury.

He is a very good player to have as a back-up when he is fit, but this is the perfect opportunity for that ARSENAL to take his huge £250,000-a-week wages off the books and add a younger back-up striker to the squad.
