Arsenal are set to receive a financial boost following the knee injury suffered by Gabriel Jesus while on national team duty at the World Cup with Brazil. The 25-year-old underwent knee surgery on Tuesday, December 6 and will likely be out of action until February at the earliest.
After arriving from Manchester City in the summer, Jesus had been at the point of the Arsenal attack this season scoring five goals and grabbing six assists from 14 Premier League appearances.
With the January transfer window on the horizon, Edu may seek to ramp up any negotiations for attackers with the view to signing a Jesus alternative on top of the proposed attacking acquisition Arsenal were likely going to make.
