Arsenal striker Gabriel Jesus has taken another massive step in his recovery from knee surgery.
Sidelined since the beginning of December after sustaining ligament damage whilst on World Cup duty for Brazil, the 25-year-old has missed the Gunners' last eight games across all competitions - although the side have coped relatively well in his absence to remain top of the Premier League table.
With regard to a potential timeline for Jesus' return to action, following surgery, there was an update from medical expert Dr. Rajpal Brar, DPT: "Return timeline after MCL surgery is typically 10-12 weeks," he wrote on Twitter. "Ligament heals quite well due to robust blood supply. Granit Xhaka was back in 70 days & would’ve been sooner if not for the accompanying fracture as well. True timeline will be wait and see.
