Bad news for Arsenal and especially for Gabriel Jesus. The Brazilian striker will once again miss part of the Gunners’ season. If last year he started strong before getting injured, this time the former Manchester City striker will be out at the start of the season. During the friendly match against Monaco on Wednesday, the Brazilian was left out of the squad due to injury. And the news given by Mikel Arteta is not good.
“Unfortunately, he underwent a small operation this morning. He had knee discomfort that was causing him problems and he had to go fix it. It’s not something major, but he’s going to be out for a few weeks I think. It’s a blow because we brought him back to his best, especially the way he played against Barcelona. He was in good condition and we lost him, but he has been feeling a bit unwell for the past few weeks and we had to make a decision.
