Why Gabriel Jesus can fire Arsenal into the top four (Pain In The Arsenal)

It is hard to fathom that Mikel Arteta and Arsenal were just one win away from securing Champions League football with Alexandre Lacazette and Eddie Nketiah as ...

Put Jesus on the pitch with those three, and the goals will flow. He has movement, the requisite football IQ, and when chances come his way, he is clinical (see his four goals v Watford). Although, he isn’t the most consistent of ball-strikers, that has to be said. Arsenal did that with only Lacazatte and Nketiah for half a season. Simply looking at how close Arsenal got last season even after their disastrous start and poor finish, coupled with only having Lacazette and Nketiah as its main striking options, the answer is an unequivocal yes. The main priority this summer was to secure a striker of serious calibre, something easier said than done with no Champions League football to offer. With Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang moved on to Barcelona, the Gunners attacking stocks were relatively thin up top.

Gabriel Jesus had two big reasons for leaving City for Arsenal (The Boot Room)

Arsenal finally appeared to seal the signing of Gabriel Jesus last night, as the Gunners agreed a fee with Manchester City for the striker.

In a way, it puts big pressure on Jesus to hit the ground running from the off. For Edu and Mikel Arteta, it will feel like a huge victory in the market, with Jesus being their number one target all along. Secondly, a desire to play down the middle is said to have influenced Jesus’ decision massively.

Oh Christ! Jesus set to leave Manchester (Man City Square)

Gabriel Jesus set to make a move from Manchester City and reunite with Mikel Arteta down in London at Arsenal for a fee of £45m.

Only best wishes and lots of gratitude for his service to the club. GJ became the first City player to both score and assist in a first Premier League start. He deserves to be starting games, and there’ll be no grudges for him leaving. Until Gabby took the blues out of reach. After another season of Liverpool breathing down the neck of Manchester City, with no room for slip ups. Rumour has it, that Manchester City are set to say bye, bye to another Brazilian blue.

Tottenham were linked with the forward but never looked too keen on the player with Antonio Conte targeting other areas of his squad over up front - where Harry Kane looks set to stay. The losses of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Alexandre Lacazette have left the Gunners light up front. And according to The Athletic, an agreement has finally been reached with City over a fee for Jesus for £45million. Chelsea had also been interested in the 25-year-old, though it is believed that their prime target is Raheem Sterling.

Arsenal are set to make Gabriel Jesus their new attacking star after agreeing a £45million fee with Manchester City.

Eddie Nketiah has been handed a bumper new contract after being convinced to stay, and was handed the club's iconic no14 shirt number in the process. Lacazette's departure frees up the no9 shirt for Jesus to immediately take over, and the Brazilian is expected to do just that. The Brazilian will now discuss personal terms with the club, which is not expected to be a problem given Jesus is reportedly already sold on working for Mikel Arteta, a former City coach.

Manchester City striker and Tottenham target Gabriel Jesus is said to be close to joining Arsenal for £45 million, according the Athletic.

With Pierre Emerick-Aubameyang having left for Barcelona in January and Alexandre Lacazette leaving the club this summer, they were always going to go for a striker this summer. Tottenham under Antonio Conte and Fabio Paratici have secured some big signings this summer. Mikel Arteta is said to have the 25-year-old at the top of his wishlist for this summer.

Arsenal will sign Gabriel Jesus, Chelsea could land Borna Sosa, Newcastle close in on Sven Botman, and Manchester City agree a deal for Kalvin Phillips.

While Newcastle have been active in the market already this summer, the signing of Nick Pope and Matt Targett has done little to suggest that they are markedly improving the squad. Paper Round’s view: Chelsea have already lost Antonio Rudiger and Andreas Christensen for nothing this summer, so they definitely need to reinforce at centre-back. Paper Round’s view: Arsenal have managed to hold off interest from both Tottenham and Chelsea if this story is true, and at £45m they have probably not overpaid for a player who could keep improving for a few more years.

Paul Merson believes Arsenal would be sacrificing their hopes of qualifying for the Champions League unless they can sign Gabriel Jesus.

Merson added: “If they get Jesus I think Arsenal fans can start to get excited. Put Jesus in there and he’s played in the big, big matches. He’s not getting in ahead of Dominic Calvert-Lewin and Richarlison at Everton and they almost got relegated. “They need to sort the Jesus signing out very quickly. Merson told the Daily Star: “Arsenal must get Gabriel Jesus if they are serious about getting back into the top four. “Yes, he does miss chances but he never goes hiding and he’s a centre-forward who is desperate to score goals.

But no one seems to be able to predict his next move right now. I am not 100% sure as it is a lot of money. If we secured him, that will be around £140m spent this summer. So it’s in the bag but not quite. But who actually knows? The reported fee is £45million, which I think is a good deal for a Premier League ready player who ticks so many boxes of what we need.

And thanks to a double announcement by the north London outfit this month, the Brazilian can get the perfect gift of the no.9 shirt if he completes his £45m transfer.

Jesus is understood to be keen to reunite with Arteta, having worked with the Arsenal manager during their time together at City, while he is almost guaranteed a starting role at the Emirates. According to reports, the Gunners are closing in the purchase of Jesus having verbally agreed a fee in the region of £45million with the Premier League champions. With Alexandre Lacazette and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang having left the Gunners within the space of six months, Arsenal are short in the striking department.

Gabriel Jesus to Arsenal: Latest transfer news, fee, contract, position ... (Sporting News)

The Sporting News wraps up the latest as Gabriel Jesus nears a move to Arsenal from Manchester City.

This may be adopted in matches against elite opposition, with Jesus' work rate meaning he can aim to nullify the opposing left-back, something he has done on multiple occasions for City. In some games, there could be the possibility where both players are fielded to add an offensive threat, though not in a rigid front two. Despite this, Jesus may provide Arsenal with a more adept option up top with regards to build-up play, allowing creative teammates like Martin Odegaard and Gabriel Martinelli to roam into dangerous attacking positions. Should his move to Arsenal go through, he could be set for a mammoth increase in his take-home pay. He has this incredible ability because he is always thinking what is the best for the team." Jesus is a versatile forward, who can play through the middle or in either wide position.

Gabriel Jesus will answer Mikel Arteta's key question before Arsenal ... (Irish Mirror)

Arsenal are drawing ever closer to a summer move for Gabriel Jesus, but questions over the Manchester City forward's best role continue to linger ahead of ...

Gabriel Jesus surely knows this himself, and now's the time to make that as clear as possible. He has had some difficult times as a more orthodox striker at international level - notably drawing a blank at the 2018 World Cup - and a move out wide has allowed him to take stock and enjoy some time out of the firing line while playing himself back into form. While Gabriel Jesus had found himself forced to move wide in previous seasons, it became more of a concrete role for him at the start of the 2021-22 campaign. In recent seasons, Arsenal found themselves using the likes of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Alexandre Lacazette in wide roles despite the pair being nominally signed as goalscorers. "For me to play on the right wing is more normal now. There have been plenty of moments in which the argument seemed settled, too.

Arsenal's £350m summer spending spree points to further transfers ... (Football.London)

Arsenal have spent big in summer transfer windows since Stan Kroenke became the club's sole shareholder in late 2018, and that trend looks set to continue.

With those resources, we have to do what we have to do in the best possible way. That's why we have to find a way to do again what we did last summer." After seeing his side miss out on a top-four finish by two points last season, Arteta sent a clear message to Stan and his son, Josh, that an aggressive approach to the summer transfer window was required again: "Overall, look back, you have to be clear with what we have to do, but very clear as well that this is not where we want to be," he said in his final pre-match conference of the 2021/22 season. "This is another step that was very necessary because it wasn't only about where we are in the league table. We don't know what the rest are going to have in terms of resources, which I assume is going to be challenging because now it's not a top-three, or top-four league, there's a top-eight or ten teams that are involved. And the money spent on 17 of those players makes for interesting reading.

Richarlison and Dominic Calvert-Lewin have both been linked with transfers away from Everton this summer, but Gabriel Jesus' switch to Arsenal sees the list ...

In the same breath, they can't be seen to be budging on their asking price for either player. Newcastle have been linked with Everton's England international striker in some reports, but that was always bound to be the case given the huge influx of money they have recently received. Who would be willing to pay the right price to bring in either Richarlison or Calvert-Lewin to their clubs this summer? Spurs have been linked with a potential move, but the rumoured fee they would be willing to pay is surely way off what the Blues would be willing to accept. In fact, there's not really been much word of concrete interest in the pair, when at one stage it seemed many teams would be chomping at the bit to begin their pursuit. That's the ambition that comes with players of these talents, and everyone at Everton will have been acutely aware of that for some time.
