Arsenal harbors concerns about Gabriel Jesus’ fitness following his inclusion in the Brazil squad for the November international fixtures. The striker, sidelined due to injury since the Champions League clash against Sevilla, has been a pivotal figure for the Gunners. Ideally, Arsenal wished for him to remain at home during this break for a complete recovery.
Despite Arsenal’s preference, Gabriel Jesus is currently with the Brazil camp, prompting the club to anxiously await positive updates post the international window. Although Brazil was aware of his injury, they included him in the squad. Arsenal’s worries, however, have been somewhat allayed by Rodrigo Lasmar, the team’s doctor.
Lasmar, quoted by Metro Sport, stated, “I’ll talk to the doctors and Edu. He did not do any training with the team, is far from returning, and has internal communication between clubs and national teams. Let’s look for the best, above all, for the player.”
While Jesus holds significance for both Arsenal and the Brazil national team, there is a cautious expectation that he may not play if it becomes apparent that he isn’t sufficiently fit to contribute effectively. The delicate balance between club and national team interests remains a focal point, with hopes pinned on prioritizing the player’s well-being.
