GABRIEL JESUS has been spotted in Arsenal training in a major boost ahead of the club’s clashes with Fulham and Manchester United.
The striker has missed Arsenal’s opening clashes after suffering a knee injury in pre-season.

The forward underwent minor surgery to remove “debris” in his knee ahead of the season.
Manager Mikel Arteta did not put a strict time frame on Jesus’ return but his return to the team has likely come earlier than expected and will be a huge boost ahead of the international break.
Eddie Nketiah has done well in his absence, registering a goal and an assist while Arsenal’s first choice forward has been out of the side.
The striker was seen training as part of the main group on social media, with the team engaging in some warm-up runs.
The training video did not show any work the players did with the football, so it remains to be seen as to whether Jesus will take part in full training with the squad.
