It has been one year to the day that Arsenal signed Gabriel Jesus from Manchester City. Another example of the club securing one of the primary targets and certainly the most high profile of the 2022 summer.
Declan Rice appears to be moving in a similar direction one year later and certainly, sporting director Edu Gaspar is receiving due praise for successive summer successes. However, the Brazilian endured a rollercoaster of a first campaign whilst at Arsenal.
Despite becoming an immediate hit, scoring within seconds of his first appearance in a friendly in Germany against Nurnberg, his exploits in the league were restricted due to a serious knee injury. He suffered the issue at the World Cup and he showcased his miraculously speedy return from surgery in a multi-part documentary on the Arsenal YouTube channel.
