Arsenal star may leave in January following a difficult start to the season

Arsenal and Gabriel Jesus are open to the possibility of parting ways in the January transfer window, according to reports.

Arsenal and Gabriel Jesus are reportedly open to the possibility of going their separate ways in the upcoming January transfer window. The Brazilian forward, who joined Arsenal in 2022 from Manchester City, has seen his playing time significantly reduced this season.

Since his arrival at the Emirates Stadium, Jesus made an immediate impact, scoring 11 goals in his first Premier League season. However, his form dipped last season, and he has struggled to regain his place in the starting lineup this campaign. With Kai Havertz emerging as the first-choice center forward, Jesus has started just six games in all competitions this season.

Behind the scenes, Jesus has faced a turbulent year, including parting ways with his agent following a legal dispute. Despite these challenges, Jesus has remained professional and focused on his game. “I believe in my potential, and I also know that the fight for my place in Arsenal is big, but I also believe that I can help a lot,” Jesus told TNT Sports Brasil.

According to report from Brazil, Arsenal is open to selling Jesus if they receive a worthwhile offer. The Gunners are also looking to raise funds to upgrade their squad and have shown interest in Sporting Lisbon striker Viktor Gyokeres. However, a move for Gyokeres might be complicated as he is reportedly keen on joining Manchester United.
