Arsenal's timeframe of Gabriel Jesus' injury is currently unclear after the striker underwent surgery on a knee injury picked up whilst at the World Cup with Brazil. Some reports suggest that an injury of his type can leave players sidelined for around three months, a period of time that would be unfortunate for Arsenal.
The January transfer window is quickly approaching and it's likely that plans have already been drawn up for a short-term fix ahead of the Gunners' Premier League title charge alongside Manchester City. However, technical director Edu and Mikel Arteta will be aware that any attacking reinforcement made in the winter will cost a sizeable fee.
Eddie Nketiah is currently next in line to start in the Gunners' attack alongside Gabriel Martinelli and Bukayo Saka on Boxing Day. There remains the possibility that the club will place faith in the Hale Ender amid hope Jesus will return earlier than expected, but have been handed a warning today from one of their Premier League rivals.
