Former Arsenal midfielder Ray Parlour believes Gabriel Jesus will stop the Gunners from approaching out-of-favour Manchester United striker Cristiano Ronaldo. The 37-year-old faces an increasingly uncertain future at Old Trafford following a controversial TV interview with Piers Morgan.
He now faces an increasingly uncertain future with the Red Devils as his relationship with head coach Erik ten Hag - and the club's fanbase - appears beyond repair. United were said to be 'furious' after being surprised by Ronaldo's interview, with the five-time Ballon d'Or winner claiming that he felt betrayed by the club.
As a result, the Mirror reported that the club have been seeking legal advice, and the Portugal international could be sacked if his behaviour is judged to be 'a serious enough breach of discipline'. Ronaldo could even be offloaded before the January transfer window opens, leaving the door wide open for newly-promoted sporting director Edu to swoop in.
