Arsenal are very close to snapping up a transfer for Gabriel Jesus from Manchester City this summer before the pre-season.
The Gunners are gearing up for their new signing in Jesus as they could make it official before pre-season kicks-off. Fans of the club appear to be very excited as manager Mikel Arteta doing everything to bolster his squad.
The latest addition in Jesus will give Arsenal a good frontline for the next season to compete. Arteta is also looking to complete the signing of Raphinha from Leeds but faces stiff competition from other clubs.
Did Arsenal hand major Pre-Season Boost?
Jesus has been sensational for the matches he appeared for the Sky Blues and relished brilliant campaigns with the club. However, moving to a new club and adjusting to the new ambiance takes time for a player.
With the pre-season set to begin in weeks’ time, Arsenal could announce the arrival of the forward from City very soon. That would give the Gunners a major advantage as the player will have time to prepare himself.
Moreover, Arteta and Jesus worked together at Manchester City when the gaffer was the assistant manager at the club. The reunion could give the player a sigh of relief to adjust swiftly to the setup.
Pre-season games are very important to a club before the regular season kicks off. The gaffer needs to bring his plans to action during these games and understand issues faced within the new setup.
Moreover, even Jesus will have some time to prove himself with the new squad to understand the Gunners’ gameplay. The player is just a step away from joining Arsenal, and the sooner the announcement is made, the better it is for the club.
Fans would hope Jesus joins the club soon before they travel to the United States for the pre-season this summer.
