Arsenal striker Gabriel Jesus is expected to undergo surgery which will keep him out for a while, dealing a blow to the Gunners' title charge.

He started the final Group G game for the South American giants against Cameroon but was withdrawn around the hour mark, due to a suspected knee injury.

Jesus will now need an operation to repair the damage to his ligaments. The timeline for his return has not yet been established and it will depend on how fast he heals, according to the Telegraph.

Arsenal fans react to injury

Most Arsenal fans obviously were devastated by the news, considering the Brazil striker is an important part of their team. With Mikel Arteta's side challenging for the Premier League title, this is terrible news.

Most fans agree that his absence will be felt when the league resumes after the World Cup.

"Brutal. Lack of depth will be Arsenal’s downfall."

@ndgunner26 said he wants Cristiano Ronaldo to replace him.

"Get me CR7 for 6 months"

@ArsenalLamp said with Jesus out, the likes of Eddie Nketiah will have to step up.

"ESR and Eddie Nketiah: time to make Arsenal history. Bring me a winger in January, and we will keep momentum. Jesus is a blow, but Eddie stepped up last season in big games. He will do it again."
