Arsenal have been handed a significant injury boost as forward Gabriel Jesus makes encouraging progress in his recovery from a long-term knee injury.
The 28-year-old underwent ACL surgery after sustaining the injury during Arsenal’s FA Cup third-round defeat to Manchester United in January.
In Jesus’ absence, the Gunners have strengthened their attacking options over the summer, bringing in Noni Madueke, Viktor Gyökeres, and Eberechi Eze.
Now, Jesus appears close to making his long-awaited return. On Sunday, he shared a video of himself training on grass for the first time in months, accompanied by an emotional caption:
“It’s been seven months of pain, uncertainty, and anxiety. Today, I finally feel light, like a child playing football again. GOD IS GREAT.”
