PSV chief uses Gabriel Jesus Arsenal transfer example in sly dig at Man United for £86m deal

Arsenal's transfer business in the last two years has seen the club go from mid-table to Premier League title challengers under Mikel Arteta. The Gunners' development has been remarkable and currently sees them top of the table, five points clear of Manchester City with just 11 games to go.

The arrivals of Ben White, Aaron Ramsdale, Oleksandr Zinchenko, Martin Odegaard, Gabriel Jesus, Leandro Trossard and Jorginho have all made huge impacts at the Emirates Stadium. Arteta has built a young team full of desire and hunger to win, that now has had the time to bond and become a real force in the Premier League.

Sporting director Edu Gaspar has shown that he will go after the players Arteta wants in his team, but will only pursue a deal on Arsenal's terms. The Gunners refuse to be drawn into bidding wars by clubs or pay over the odds for players - highlighted by the club missing out on deals for Mykhailo Mudryk, Lisandro Martinez and Moises Caicedo in recent history.
