Chelsea have entered the race to sign Gabriel Jesus this summer causing Arsenal quite the quandary should they fail in their attempts to convince the Brazilian to make the switch to the Gunners. The possibility that Edu might fail this window is a growing frustration with each passing day.
Youri Tielemans looks a far more likely player on the list but with how strong the suggestions are that Gabriel Jesus would be making a switch to the Emirates, it is clear a U-turn for any player is possible. Arsenal missing out on Champions League football appears to be the deciding factor in these potential disappointments.
It should be stressed that Arsenal remain in the driving seat for both Jesus and Tielemans at this stage. Competition for players of this quality is very normal, especially when the primary candidate club faces an obstacle like missing out on the top four.
