Arsenal have officially completed the signing of Brazilian forward Gabriel Jesus from Manchester City on a 5-year deal. The fee is reported to be in the region of £45M.
The 25-year-old forward scored 95 goals in 236 appearances at Manchester City, winning an impressive 4 Premier League titles, 1 FA Cup and 3 EFL titles in his five-year spell with the Sky Blues. He will wear the vacant #9 shirt, previously occupied by Frenchman Alexandre Lacazette.
Jesus’ best performing season was the 2019/20 season, which saw the Brazilian score 23 times in 53 appearances, including 14 strikes in 34 Premier League appearances. However, his most memorable moment in Manchester came on the final day of the 2017/18 season, when he notched an injury-time winner against Southampton to take his side to an unprecedented 100 points and earn them their ‘Centurions’ title.
The Sao Paulo born striker has also scored 19 goals in 56 appearances for the Brazilian National team, and will be hoping to lead his nation to World Cup glory in Qatar later this year.
