Gabriel Jesus has been linked with a possible move away from Arsenal this summer, as speculation around his future grows during his ongoing recovery from a long-term injury. The Brazilian forward remains a notable figure in the squad, but his role is now under greater scrutiny following recent developments at the club.
Arsenal’s acquisition of Viktor Gyokeres has shifted the dynamic in the attacking department. Jesus, who arrived from Manchester City with high expectations, has not consistently delivered the level of goal-scoring the club had hoped for. This inconsistency, coupled with his recent injury issues, has opened the door for increased competition in the striker position.
Increased Competition and Uncertain Prospects
Jesus already faced pressure from Kai Havertz during the previous campaign, and with Gyokeres now in the fold, the path to regular minutes looks increasingly challenging. As Arsenal continue to reshape their squad, the possibility of offloading players who no longer fit the evolving strategy has become more realistic.
There have been rumours of interest from other clubs, yet uncertainty remains regarding whether a move will materialise in this window. As cited by Sport Witness, one source suggests that while discussions exist, the primary reason nothing has progressed is simply his injury status.
“No club wants a player on his way back from a long-term injury,” the report notes, underlining the difficulty in generating genuine interest for a player who is not yet fully fit.
January Exit Could Be More Likely
Given the current situation, an immediate transfer seems unlikely. Jesus is still recovering and has yet to return to full training, which makes it difficult for any potential suitor to commit to a deal at this stage. Arsenal, while open to offers, may need to wait until the January transfer window when clubs could be more willing to consider a move if he has regained form and fitness.
Looking ahead, much will depend on how quickly Jesus recovers and whether Gyokeres can meet expectations early in the season. If the new signing establishes himself as the preferred option, it may only be a matter of time before Jesus considers a new chapter elsewhere.

What is he going to be doing please
Wishful thinking that he’ll leave in the winter as well, I suspect.
He is clearly injury-prone so going a few months without injury (assuming he does) until January doesn’t mean that he’s ceased to be injury-prone. Potential buyers know that. Are they likely to pay good money in those circumstances? Never mind the fact (the fact, that is) that he hardly scores goals even when fit.
I’m really not sure what Arsenal expects out of any deal.
Jesus and Trossard are awesome to have on the bench. They could come on to the pitch and change a game with their experience and skill
I doubt it. Jesus is finished, and Trossard not good enough anymore
So, Arsenal is happy paying Jesus £14m a year to “have on the bench”? Really? I think they’d rather see him out of the exit door tomorrow.
He is a very expensive ornament that Arsenal can’t really afford, particularly with all the new signings arriving.
Bertie,
I totally agree with your post. With the wages Jesus is on and his current injury status, coupled with his underwhelming performances, I’d be surprised if Accrington Stanley were interested in him to be honest. 😂🤣👍
Why is the the god pain and injury always going for the bright ones, I mean why jesus and why not martinelli. I’m sorry but no one will bloody care if martineli leg breaks or amputated
Steady on Tea,
Your over the top there, talking of leg breaks and amputations.
I don’t care who the player is, I wouldn’t wish that on anyone. 🤷♂️
It was a bit sick tbh Derek
SueP,
I do wonder about people sometimes.🤦♂️
Derek, agree, disgusting post by Tea.
Herr Drier,
How do some peoples mind work.🤷♂️
Derek, after the broken legs and serious injuries our players have suffered over the years, for Tea to come out with that post is truly shocking 😡
