Gabriel Jesus has issued a warning to Bayern Munich ahead of their Champions League quarterfinal clash with Arsenal, emphasizing that the Gunners are no longer inexperienced youngsters. Arsenal, who last reached this stage of the competition in 2010, are eager to break a 15-year drought and progress to the semifinals. Despite facing Bayern, a team with a formidable track record, Arsenal are considered favorites given their current top position in the Premier League.
Jesus, a seasoned player with multiple league titles and a Champions League final appearance under his belt, believes that Arsenal's young squad is prepared to step up to the challenge. He highlighted the team's growth and maturity, expressing confidence in their ability to perform at the highest level.
The Brazilian forward also acknowledged the threat posed by Bayern's star striker Harry Kane, whom he hailed as the best finisher in the world. Jesus praised Kane's versatility and goal-scoring prowess, emphasizing the need to contain him during the upcoming match. Additionally, he recognized the quality of other Bayern players such as Leroy Sane, Jamal Musiala, and Thomas Muller.
Bayern, who have faced domestic struggles this season, have already confirmed the departure of their manager at the end of the campaign. However, Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta remains focused on the task at hand, stating that his team will approach the match with the same level of preparation and respect for their opponents, regardless of Bayern's current form.
