Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta said Gabriel Jesus’ ability to create “chaos” is exactly what they need after the Brazilian continued his impressive pre-season form in a 2-0 win over Everton in Baltimore on Saturday.
Jesus opened the scoring in the 33rd minute after a corner found him unmarked at the far post, lashing his effort past Jordan Pickford and into the roof of the net, before playing a role in setting up Bukayo Saka for the second minutes later.
The 25-year-old striker, who scored twice in a pre-season friendly against Nuremberg earlier this month, was signed for £45 million ($53.33 million) from Manchester City in the close season.
