Gabriel Jesus' desire leaves Arsenal 'increasingly confident' over £50m transfer

Arsenal have growing optimism they will strike a deal to sign Gabriel Jesus from Manchester City this summer, according to reports.

The 25-year-old has been linked with a move to the Gunners as Mikel Arteta looks to bolster his attacking options following Alexandre Lacazette's departure. The Frenchman has agreed to re-join Lyon on a free transfer, while Eddie Nketiah has been offered a new contract after impressing at the end of the season.

Tottenham are also interested in signing Brazil international Jesus, who has scored 95 goals in 236 games since joining City in a £31million transfer from Palmeiras in 2017. He has helped City win four Premier League titles, one FA Cup and three EFL Cups since arrived at the Etihad.
