Arsenal striker Gabriel Jesus confident injury rehab on schedule

Arsenal striker Gabriel Jesus has indicated his injury recovery is on track.

The Brazilian filmed himself on an exercise bike as he continues his rehabilitation.

Jesus suffered the injury during Brazil's World Cup group stage match against Cameroon on December 2. He swiftly returned to the UK and underwent surgery on the issue a few days later, with Arsenal confirming the news on December 6.

It has been five weeks since he went under the knife. And he was perhaps signalling that milestone on his Instagram story on Wednesday morning.

Jesus shared a boomerang video of himself on the bike. He captioned the video: "5 weeks" with a tick, hands up and muscle flexing emojis.

Reports initially suggested Jesus would be missing for around three months. Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta has refused to put any timeline on his return.
