Arsenal have been presented with an unprecedented task ahead of the January transfer window. Much has been said of the need for further squad depth added to Mikel Arteta's squad for the second half of the season, but an injury to Gabriel Jesus has turned the upcoming window on its head.
The Gunners forward was confirmed to miss the rest of Brazil's World Cup campaign in Qatar after being forced off with a knee injury in the 1-0 defeat to Cameroon. While his absence won't be as missed by A selecao, his presence in the frontline at the Emirates Stadium will be a hard one to fill.
Since his £45million summer move from English champions Manchester City, Jesus has played a key role in helping Arsenal to their best Premier League start. The north Londoners sit top of the tree after 14 games and the 25-year-old has added goals and superior build-up play to the Gunners squad.
