Arsenal open to selling star striker as Flamengo and European clubs explore potential deal

Gabriel-Jesus-Arsenal

Arsenal could part ways with Gabriel Jesus this summer, with reports confirming growing interest from Flamengo and multiple European clubs. According to updates, Andrea Berta is now looking to exploring a sale if the right offer arrives.

Jesus, who joined Arsenal from Manchester City in 2022, has struggled with recurring injuries and consistency despite flashes of brilliance. With Mikel Arteta reshaping the attack ahead of a crucial 2024/25 campaign, the club is weighing up all options including a potential exit for the Brazilian forward.

Brazilian giants Flamengo have emerged as one of the first clubs to formally express interest. The move would bring Jesus back to his home country for the first time since leaving Palmeiras, and early signs suggest the player is not closed off to the idea if circumstances align.

Other European clubs are also keeping tabs, with several sides in Spain and Italy reportedly in touch with intermediaries. Arsenal, meanwhile, are not actively pushing Jesus out, but Andrea Berta’s involvement signals that discussions are underway behind the scenes.

While Jesus has been an important part of Arteta’s system, especially after the club’s return to the Champions League, his output has raised questions. A combination of injuries, patchy form, and the rise of other attacking options has made his future less certain.

With Viktor Gyökeres closing in on his Arsenal transfer and the club pushing for new wide and central attacking profiles, Jesus could be the casualty of an evolving system. Arsenal need clinical edge up front, and the staff know they can’t afford to carry players through long injury spells again.

Final thoughts

This isn’t just smoke, Arsenal are clearly open to change. Jesus remains a fan favorite for his work rate and personality, but football moves fast. If Flamengo or another club makes a serious offer, it could be time for Arsenal to cash in and shift the attack forward. Watch this space, things are moving.
