Gabriel Jesus could be back in full training within a month after the striker dropped a hint about his possible return date.
The Brazilian was injured while on national duty at the Qatar 2022 World Cup, but remains one of Arsenal’s key men even though they have coped with his absence very well.
He watched on as the Gunners beat Manchester United 3-2 at the weekend and was asked about his return date by the UFC legend Khabib Nurmagomedov. The Brazilian said: “Maybe four or five weeks more I come back”, according to a report in The Sun.
The striker and ex-UFC star reportedly sat close to each other during the win against United and had a conversation at halftime.
Just Arsenal Opinion
Although Eddie Nketiah has stepped up in place of Jesus very well, the Brazilian still has a huge role to play in this team.
He was superb before the World Cup and will be a key first-team player when he returns from his fitness problem.
For now, we all support Nketiah to continue delivering the top-level performances we are getting because the Englishman has clearly shown he has what it takes to lead the line for the Premier League leaders.

Yes! Gabriel Jesus for his wonderful performances for Arsenal in the Epl that contributed immensely to our rising to the no 1 position on the table. Before he got sidelined with injury at the Qarta 2022 World Cup. Will be most welcomed back to the team. By us Gooners, him team mates, Arteta and others at the club. For his all round top quality performance that he’ll expectedly comes back with to bring for Arsenal as 2nd half of the deacon campaign pans on.
Meanwhile, let us all Arsenal give many, many and many kudos to Eddie Nkethia for his more than living up to deputize effectively for Gabriel Jesus during his injury absent for Arsenal.
If Eddie carries on as he has been, Jesus will have difficulty getting back in the team😊.
Who said Eddie is deputising for Jesus? Right now Eddie is more prolific than Jesus was before Xmas, and Eddie is leading the line in a different way when he’s not scoring. It will be very hard to drop him later in the season if he carries on with this form.
You missed my point. Eddie only came into the team when Jesus got injured so how will Jesus get back in the team unless he replaces someone else, that is if Eddie carries in his great form?

I believe Arteta is trying to create a competitive team with Stan Kroeke’s money.
Every position would have two good quality players that would raise the bar of the first choice player.
ST – Jesus – Nketiah
LW – Martinelli – Trossard
AM – Odegaard – Fabio
RW – Saka – Smith-Rowe
CM – Xhaka – Lokonga?
DM – Partey – Elneny?
LB – Zinchenko – Terney
LCB – Gabriel – Kiwior
RCB – Saliba – Holding?
RB – White – Tomiyasu
GK – Ramsdale – Turner.s
SJ those 3 names you put question mark in front should be sold or loan out, most especially that Sambi Lokonga ,I don’t see any reason Arsenal should be keeping him in their team up till now..very Lazy player, Holding is also not having much impact in the team , but I believe Mohammed Elleny can still do better if given much playing time.
