Former Arsenal star agrees with Bukayo Saka and Emile Smith Rowe on £75m transfer verdict

Arsenal legend William Gallas believes Oleksandr Zinchenko and Gabriel Jesus have been important signings in turning Mikel Arteta's side into Premier League title challengers. The Gunners sit eight points clear at the top of the table heading into the final 10 games of the season.

The north Londoners' lead over Manchester City could be cut down to five points if Pep Guardiola's side win their crucial game in hand. The two sides will face each other at the Etihad Stadium towards the end of April in a potential title-deciding fixture.

Jesus has been a revelation in attack for the Gunners and enjoyed a brilliant start to the season before suffering a long-term knee injury during the World Cup in Qatar. The Brazilian striker returned to fitness in March and is now ready to help Arsenal lift their first Premier League title since 2004, alongside Zinchenko, who has become Arteta's first choice left-back ahead of Kieran Tierney.
