Arsenal striker Gabriel Jesus looks set to be sidelined for a number of weeks after sustaining a knee injury at the World Cup. The Brazilian made his first start for his nation in Qatar but was substituted in the second half of Brazil's final Group G fixture against Cameroon.
Jesus suffered a medial collateral ligament injury and he has now undergone successful surgery to correct the issue. The Brazilian striker was expected to miss between three to four weeks initially, but the latest news suggests the injury is much worse than first feared.
It's unclear with regard to how long the striker will be sidelined as everything is dependent on how he heals. Jesus has suffered an MCL injury before during his time at Manchester City, but did not require an operation on that occasion.
