Gabriel Jesus has revealed that he has been delighted to return to a more central striking role since joining Arsenal from Manchester City.
The Brazilian was Mikel Arteta 's star summer signing, moving to the Emirates Stadium in a £45million deal from City. While he was originally seen as the primary back-up to Sergio Aguero, Jesus was generally employed on the wing by Pep Guardiola.
That also saw him take up a similar position for the Brazilian national team, with Neymar taking the role as the central striker for the Selecao. But since joining Arsenal, Jesus has reverted back to a more central role, with Arteta seeing him as the direct replacement for Alexandre Lacazette as his side's attacking focal point..
