Arsenal legend explains why Gabriel Jesus is leaving Man City

Arsenal legend Alan Smith has explained why he thinks Gabriel Jesus is leaving Manchester City this summer.

Jesus' move to the Emirates Stadium is on the verge of being officially announced after he was spotted earlier this week meeting Arsenal's sporting director Edu. It is believed that City will receive £45m for the 25-year-old who has just a year remaining on his Blues contract.

It was predicted earlier this summer that the arrival of Erling Haaland and Julian Alvarez at the Etihad Stadium would lead to Jesus leaving the club and it seems to have proven that way. Speaking to Sky Sports, former Gunners forward Smith believes that the Brazilian will have a point to prove in North London.
