Arsenal may have an advantage over the likes of Real Madrid, Chelsea and Tottenham in the race to sign Gabriel Jesus from Manchester City.
The Gunners are in need of at least one striker this summer after allowing Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang to join Barcelona back in January whilst Alexandre Lacazette is set to leave the Emirates Stadium at the end of the month. City frontman Jesus is one name on the club's shortlist and football.london understands that technical director Edu has held talks with the player's representatives in recent months.
