Fears became all too real for Arsenal fans last week after Gabriel Jesus’ World Cup journey with Brazil came to an abrupt end due to injury.
It was confirmed that the forward, who has been instrumental in the Gunners’ impressive start to the season, had travelled back to the UK to undergo further tests on his knee having experienced pain whilst playing.
Initial reports ruled Jesus out of action for just three weeks, while others have since claimed it could be several months on the sidelines after Arsenal confirmed he had successfully undergone surgery. There remains no official recovery timeframe, although the club added that rehab will begin immediately.
