The knee injury that is set to keep Gabriel Jesus out of the Arsenal team until at least February will undoubtedly be a significant blow to Mikel Arteta in the midst of their Premier League title battle with Manchester City. More depth in attack was certainly on the agenda for Edu in the January transfer window, but the injury to Jesus may have fast-tracked those plans.
Arsenal have been linked with a number of quality forwards from around the world, but only a select few seem to be receiving concrete interest from north London with Mykhaylo Mudryk, Cody Gakpo and Marcus Thuram certainly all one the list.
All three have been among the goals for their respective clubs this season and would likely be great additions to the Arsenal squad in the January transfer window. With that in mind, football.london has compared the stats of the trio to find out who could be best equipped to help with Jesus' absence.
