Gabriel Jesus

Gabriel Jesus' rumoured move to Arsenal looks to be edging ever closer. The Brazilian striker looks set to swap Manchester City for north London with Mikel…

If he can spark his performances to life on the pitch and get the goals rattling in for the Gunners, it could be a very happy relationship indeed. In the images, a barefoot Jesus is seen painting the pavements in the iconic green and yellow colours of Brazil alongside some of his friends. Ahead of the FIFA World Cup in 2014, due to be held in Brazil, Jesus was living in a high density neighbourhood, fantasising about playing for his beloved country one day.

Renowned transfer journalist Fabrizio Romano announced a deal that brings Brazilian and Manchester City striker Gabriel Jesus to the Emirates. According to ...

Gabriel Jesus is a step in the right direction and acquiring Raphinha would be a coup. He ranked in the 91st percentile in blocks, the 79th percentile in interceptions and the 76th percentile in clearances which shows that he tracks back at a high level to help his fullback. “He can play in the three positions up front, and when we need players who can help a lot (with pressing), he’s the best in the world. One thing the two forwards have in common is that they are excellent at pressing and applying pressure on their opponents. Plus, he added four goals in the Champions League. Jesus is part of the most successful domestic club in recent history in the Premier League. For reference, City and Jesus won four of the last five Premier League titles. According to reports, the club is also interested in acquiring right winger Raphinha from Leeds. The 25-year-old wants to join Barcelona, but the club’s financial issues are deterring their progress. The 2017 Vitória Guimarães Breakthrough Player of the Year scored 11 goals and had three assists as he helped Leeds stay in the Premier League. After arriving at Manchester City five years ago, Gabriel Jesus served well at the Etihad. This past season, he contributed eight goals and eight assists in the league. In compensation, he earned a new five-year deal at the club. With rotation key at Manchester City, he perhaps lacked the consistency to grow. At Manchester City, Jesus was surplus to requirements at the striker position. Gabriel Jesus to Arsenal, here we go!

Arsenal will sign Gabriel Jesus as they look to boost their attacking options ahead of the new Premier League season.

The signing of Jesus will be a major boost to Arsenal’s attacking options having lost strikers Alexandre Lacazette and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang this year. There was interest in the 25-year-old from Tottenham Hotspur and Chelsea, but Arsenal will sign the striker as they look to boost their attacking options ahead of the new Premier League season. He scored 58 goals in 159 Premier League matches for the Manchester club.

Arsenal have received plenty of plaudits as they look set to sign Gabriel Jesus and are in serious talks to add Raphinha.The Gunners are making their.

He added: “Is it a coup, was there an embarrassment of riches behind it in terms of opportunities to go somewhere else? “I think it’s a decent signing. If they play him down the middle, regularly, then I think he could become a 1 in 2 for them.” “A diamond in the rough if you like, someone they can make better. He told talkSPORT: “I think it’s a very good signing because I don’t know what else they could do or who they could get? Is he going to be a centre forward?

The Arsenal manager finally seems to have landed his ideal striker in the summer transfer window.

It shows that a top player is still willing to join the club and for the right reasons, too. Discussing the priority for the summer window, Arteta said of what he wanted from any incoming striker: “He puts the ball in the net – that’s priority number one. It comes after the loss of duo Alexandre Lacazette and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, leaving just Eddie Nketiah as the only natural centre-forward option.

They will now quickly turn to his countryman Raphinha, with Mikel Arteta desperate to add him to his attacking options ahead of the new season. Leeds value the ...

If he is to remain in the Premier League, Raphinha is thought to prefer a move to Chelsea. Leeds value the winger at £65million but Raphinha’s representatives believes a bid of around £50million will convince Leeds to cash in. The Gunners have reportedly completed the signing of Jesus having agreed personal terms with the forward, having also agreed a £45million fee with Manchester City last week.

Brazilian football expert, Tim Vickery has said that Gabriel Jesus' failure to score a goal in the 2018 World Cup has been traumatic to the player. The.

Many maligned centre-forwards have scored for Brazil at the World Cup, but he didn’t manage one. “In the World Cup he had a mare. The Manchester City forward, who is now heading to Arsenal, had after the World Cup lamented that “I went to the World Cup as a key player and I ended up not scoring.

The Gunners have acted decisively in the transfer market to bolster a small squad and it could lead to a return to the Champions League.

Arsenal already look to have a stronger squad now than they did just a few weeks ago, with Vieira and USA international goalkeeper Matt Turner signed up and Jesus to follow. Buying another is hardly a priority, but acquiring a craftsman of Raphinha’s class would represent a significant statement of intent given the sky-high standard of his performances over the past two years and there is no question that he would enhance Arteta’s options considerably. So far, that doesn’t seem to be the case; Arsenal have bounced back from a dispiriting run-in in eye-catching fashion. Jurgen Klopp did similar after bringing Mo Salah to Liverpool in 2017, with Sadio Mane switching from the right wing to the left: suffice to say that particular move worked out pretty well. And if Jesus can finetune his finishing, it will prove to be a masterstroke. More exciting still is that Jesus would be the elder statesman of that particular group at just 25.
