Gabriel Jesus has admitted he \u2018thinks about a return to Palmeiras every day\u2019 amid speculation that Arsenal could look to cash in on the forward this summer.<\/p>\n
Jesus has seen his first team minutes drastically decline since his \u20ac52 million move from Manchester City in 2022, with a combination of injuries and the natural evolution of Mikel Arteta\u2019s squad turning the Brazilian into a fringe player this season.<\/p>\n
With his contract expiring next summer, an exit from Arsenal could be a real possibility this summer<\/b> and Jesus has made no secret over a return to Palmeiras, having spent time with his boyhood club over the international break in order to aid his fitness.<\/p>\n
Jesus revealed last week that the \u2018doors were always open\u2019 to re-joining Palmeiras<\/b> and he has since opened up further about his \u2018dream\u2019 of playing for the club again.<\/p>\n
“I follow it quite closely. My bond with Palmeiras has never been broken,\u201d Jesus said in an interview with Rom\u00e1rioTV<\/i><\/a>. \u201cWhenever I’m in Brazil, unfortunately I also have my injuries, which I receive treatment for there.<\/p>\n \u201cI always follow it very closely and obviously I dream of returning to play one day, not to end my career. I think about returning every day, my wife can attest to that.\u201d<\/p>\n Jesus has made just two Premier League starts this season, having only returned from a cruciate ligament tear in December that kept him sidelined for 11 months.<\/p>\n The 28-year-old was a key figure for Arsenal in his first two years with the club but most of his minutes since have come from the bench and Jesus has found himself behind the likes of Viktor Gyokeres, Kai Havertz and Leandro Trossard in the pecking order.<\/p>\n Arsenal are open to Jesus\u2019 sale this summer, with Atletico Madrid among the teams believed to be interested in a move, although much will depend on the deal being offered.<\/p>\n The Gunners may also look to replace Jesus with a younger forward such as Christian Kofane after the Bayer Leverkusen wonderkid\u2019s agent revealed that Arsenal were \u2018in pole position\u2019 for the \u20ac100m-rated striker.<\/b><\/p>\n Arsenal Transfer News Today: Brazil star admits Gunners dream with Calafiori ‘keen’ on exit<\/b><\/p>\n Chelsea Transfer News Today: Delap replacement identified as \u20ac85m deal explodes into life<\/b><\/p>\n Man Utd Transfer News Today: Tonali shock as \u20ac30m problem emerges<\/b><\/p>\n Transfer Rumours: Chelsea reignite \u20ac80m Kounde pursuit after Calafiori decision<\/b><\/p>\n Check out FootballTransfers’ new app for all of football’s big storylines, transfer rumours and exclusive news in one convenient place directly on your mobile device.<\/p>\n The FootballTransfers app is available on Google Play and in the Apple App Store.
