EPL: Arsenal give fresh update on Jesus
Arsenal on Tuesday provided an update on Gabriel Jesus after the striker sustained an injury.
The Premier League north London club disclosed this in a statement on their website.
The Brazilian international suffered an anterior cruciate ligament injury in his left knee during Arsenal’s FA Cup defeat to Manchester United on Sunday.
The former Man City star was substituted during the encounter at the Emirates Stadium as the Gunners lost 5-3 on penalties following a 1-1 draw.
He was replaced by Chelsea loanee Raheem Sterling after 40 minutes of the match.
“Gabby will undergo surgery in the coming days and will soon begin his recovery and rehabilitation programme,” Arsenal’s statement read.
“We will continue to keep everyone updated with Gabby’s recovery, with everyone at the club fully focused on supporting Gabby to ensure he is back to full fitness as soon as possible.”
Jesus’ latest injury is a major setback for Mikel Arteta’s side.
The Premier League north London club may be forced to sign a new striker during the January transfer window as a result of Jesus’ injury.
