Arsenal have lodged an opening offer as they attempt to lure Gabriel Jesus to north London, according to reports.
The Manchester City forward is heavily linked with the exit door at the Etihad following the announcement of Erling Haaland's signing - which is set to hamper his minutes. Jesus has several suitors eyeing him but the Gunners have made a bid of £42m (€50m) for the Brazilian, reports Goal.
Arsenal are seeking to add more firepower and Jesus has proven his credentials in the Premier League. He recently scored four in a win over Watford, taking his total for the season to 13. Mikel Arteta made his interest in the player clear with Emirates chief Edu acting on such a request.
