Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta has revealed that he is unsure if Gabriel Jesus will be available for the Premier League clash against Leeds United on Sunday.
The Brazilian missed the trip to Norway in midweek as the Gunners beat Bodo/Glimt 1-0 to move top of their Europa League group, the first game all season that Jesus has missed out on. The 25-year-old has proved to be a sensational summer signing after completing a £45million move from Manchester City, scoring five goals and providing a further five assists in just 11 appearances.
Jesus won a crucial penalty which was converted by Bukayo Saka in the dramatic 3-2 win against Liverpool last weekend, but was on the receiving end of a few tough challenges which resulted in the Brazilian not being risked in the Europa League. Eddie Nketiah has proved to be a solid back-up for the Brazil international, but Jesus has offered something completely different in attack with his movement, strength and ability on the ball, and would be a huge miss in the Gunners line-up.
