Arsenal are reportedly set to revive their interest in FC Porto striker Mehdi Taremi ahead of the January transfer window as a replacement for Gabriel Jesus. The Brazilian forward faces a period out of action after sustaining a knee injury whilst at the World Cup meaning the Gunners may have to recruit a short-term fix.
Mikel Arteta's men are top of the Premier League table after 14 games and have Gabriel Jesus to thank for his individual performances since moving from Manchester City. The 25-year-old has scored five goals and provided another six assists and has formed a strong frontline with Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Martinelli.
However, Arteta was handed a major blow to his side's title chances last week when the club confirmed he would be sidelined after undergoing surgery on a knee injury. The injury to Jesus leaves Eddie Nketiah as the only natural No. 9 at the club, meaning technical director Edu faces the task of adding a new addition to Arteta's squad.
