Gabriel Jesus: Arsenal Striker’s Return Date From Injury Revealed Ahead of Gunners’ Hectic Fixture List

• Arsenal striker Gabriel Jesus has been out injured for close to three months
• The Brazilian has been battling a knee injury suffered during the 2022 World Cup in Qatar
• His absence has seen him miss crucial matches for the Gunners, who are favourites to win the EPL this season

Gabriel Jesus' return date from his injury has been revealed as Arsenal face an anxious wait for his comeback.

The Arsenal summer signing has been sidelined since the World Cup when he picked a knee injury while on international duty with Brazil.

Eddie Nketiah has been holding brief in the absence of the Brazilian star as the Gunners continue their Premier League title charge.

However, The Sun reports that Arsenal fans are desperate to have Jesus return to action to bolster their attack ahead of the club's fixture run in.

When will Jesus return?

It seems the long wait is almost over, with Football London claiming that Jesus is expected to return before the international break.

This would be a huge boost for the Gunners, who face a busy fixture run before a two-week hiatus of club football on March 19.

Mikel Arteta's men are scheduled to play six fixtures prior to the break, with a clash against relegation battlers Everton on the horizon.

The two teams will lock horns on Wednesday night before they battle Bournemouth three days later.

A trip to Sporting Lisbon for the Europa League will follow, with an away trip to Fulham between the two-legged European fixture.

Arsenal's final match before the international break will be a derby clash against Crystal Palace.

It is projected that Jesus will be fit during the period and is likely to be involved as he works his way to full recovery.

Arsenal strengthen midfield with Jorginho

Sports Brief earlier reported that Arsenal signed Chelsea midfielder Jorginho on deadline day to reinforce their midfield options.

The Gunners have struggled to effectively back up Thomas Partey in case of suspension or injury, as Albert Sambi Lokonga has proven he can not be a proper deputy.

Jorginho revealed the Gunners boss had attempted to sign him many times during his time at Stamford Bridge but was unsuccessful and was happy to finally make it.
