Arsenal boost as Man City striker Gabriel Jesus wants Prem stay

Manchester City striker Gabriel Jesus is ready to move within the Premier League.

The Sun says Gabriel wants to remain in the Premier League, according to his agent, amid transfer links to Arsenal.

The Manchester City striker's contract at the Etihad runs out in 2023, meaning the reigning champions could sell him this summer to avoid losing him on a free transfer the year after.

And he is set to reject any interest from foreign clubs because he wants to stay in the English top-flight - marking a boost for Arsenal.

His agent Marcelo Pettinati has confirmed there is interest from Arsenal and boss Mikel Arteta, whose only two strikers in Alexandre Lacazette and Eddie Nketiah are out of contract this summer, and the two camps have held positive talks.
