“I’m very excited. The club has done a tremendous job to recruit a player of this stature. I know Gabriel personally very well, and we all know him well from his time in the Premier League and being really successful here.

Other clubs tried to hijack a deal for Gabriel Jesus, but Arsenal already had a clear agreement with the player. The Gunners will now focus their attention on other positions they want to strengthen. Arsenal are still in for Raphinha, but that deal seems unlikely.
