Agent confirms Arsenal talks for Man City attacker Gabriel Jesus

The agent of Manchester City attacker Gabriel Jesus has confirmed talks with Arsenal.

The Brazilian has long been linked with a move to Arsenal, who will be in the market for a striker in the summer as Alexandre Lacazette and Eddie Nketiah could both leave the club.

The 25-year-old's agent, Marcelo Pettinati, claims Arsenal are one of seven teams interested in Jesus.

"We had talks with Arsenal about Gabriel Jesus," said Pettinati.

"We like the project – it's a possibility we're discussing. There are six more clubs interested in Gabriel. He's focused on the final games with Man City; we'll see."
