Arsenal handed huge Joao Felix January transfer option as Gabriel Jesus undergoes surgery

Arsenal striker Gabriel Jesus has undergone successful surgery after suffering a medial cruciate ligament injury for Brazil. The 25-year-old was substituted off against Cameroon in his nation's final Group G fixture.

Jesus was initially expected to only miss three to four weeks of action but recent reports have suggested he will be out until February. The Brazilian striker suffered a similar injury during his time at Manchester City but did not need surgery to correct the issue as he now begins his rehabilitation with Arsenal.

Jesus completed a £45million move to the Emirates Stadium in the summer transfer window and enjoyed a strong start to life with the Gunners. His recent form has dropped with Jesus suffering a length goal drought for club and country, despite him still providing assists for his teammates.
