Gabriel Jesus' agent has given Arsenal a huge boost in their pursuit of the Manchester City striker after commenting on the Brazilian's future.
football.london understands that Jesus is one name on the Gunners' shortlist to add to their attacking ranks, with the futures of both Eddie Nketiah and Alexandre Lacazette still uncertain. Arsenal's technical director Edu has been in talks with the player's representatives over the past few months, with Jesus' agent, Marcelo Pettinati, admitting that the Brazilian 'likes the project' at the Emirates.
Following the arrival of Borussia Dortmund striker Erling Haaland at the Etihad this summer, Jesus is expected to leave City for a fee in the region of £35million. According to the Brazilian's agent, Jesus wants to stay in the Premier League which could put the Gunners in pole position for the 25-year-old's signature this summer.
