Arsenal hitman Gabriel Jesus will be available for selection in Sunday’s visit to Leeds United.
At least, that’s the view of journalist Charles Watts, who exclusively covers the Gunners for Goal.com.
Jesus came off late on in the 3-2 victory over Liverpool at the Emirates Stadium last weekend, and subsequently missed the Europa League victory away to Bodo/Glimt.
Even Mikel Arteta revealed on Friday that he didn’t know whether his 25-year-old star player would travel to Elland Road.
But Watts, speaking on his YouTube channel, has revealed he’s been told that the player will be fit.
He said: “I’m told there’s no concern for him ahead of the Leeds game, he will be ok for that. It was just purely a case of giving him a little bit of time off, give him a little rest.”
What an insane signing Jesus has been for Arsenal.
The North Londoners only spent £45 million on signing him from Manchester City during the summer transfer window and five Premier League goals since then illustrate that he’s been a fine addition.
But it’s not only his goals.
Jesus’s overall impact has been nothing short of inspirational and there’s no doubt that if he starts away to Leeds, the Gunners’ chances of victory increase tremendously.
