Gabriel Jesus held his first training session with Arsenal on Wednesday since being sidelined in November with a right knee injury. A preparation session where the slush came out at the London Colney facilities.
The Brazilian striker was injured during his team’s match against Cameroon at the World Cup in Qatar and at the beginning of December he underwent surgery. His last meeting with Arsenal was on November 12. Since then he has missed twelve Premier League games.
Gabriel Jesus’ return to training with the group is a new impulse for Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal, who are at the top of the Premier League with a five-point lead over Manchester City.
Nketiah and Trossard, their replacements
Without Gabriel Jesus, Arteta lined up Eddie Nketiah, who has scored nine goals in all competitions this season, and Leandro Trossard, who Arsenal signed in the summer transfer window to alleviate the losses of ‘Gunner’ team and expand the wardrobe fund.
Arsenal’s calendar is complicated from now on, with the arrival of the Europa League round of 16, where this Thursday they will visit Sporting de Portugal. On Sunday they travel to west London to face Fulham.
