Arsenal could be willing to offload striker Gabriel Jesus in the January transfer window if the Brazilian can prove his fitness before then.
Jesus joined the North London side from Manchester City in the summer of 2022, scoring 11 Premier League goals in his first season with the club.
However, the 28-year-old has failed to hit the same heights since, managing just seven league goals in the two campaigns since, and being hampered by injury throughout.
It’s clear that Mikel Arteta no longer sees Jesus as the long-term option up front, with Arsenal bringing in Viktor Gyokeres from Sporting Lisbon this summer, in an attempt to solve their centre-forward issues.

According to The Athletic, Arsenal will be looking to recoup some of the £254million they spent during the most recent transfer window in January, and Jesus may be one of those they decide to offload.
The Brazilian international is now well down the pecking order in terms of strikers at the North London club, with Arteta preferring both Gyokeres and Kai Havertz.
However, the sale of the former Man City man could be halted by the fact that he is on the way back from an ACL injury, and will only be possible if he returns to full fitness before the window reopens.

Meanwhile, Arsenal owner Stan Kroenke has seen his fortune increase by more than £1.8billion over the past year, sources have told Football Insider.
Kroenke hasn’t always been a popular figure among Arsenal fans, with many questioning his intentions since investing in the club in 2007.
The American billionaire increased his shareholding over several years before buying the Gunners outright in 2018.
Bloomberg’s Billionaire Index has revealed Kroenke has seen his personal wealth surge by £1.85bn over the past year, up to £17.28bn, making him the 102nd richest person in the world.
