According to mail sport, the brazilian international has sustained a knee injury. The nature of the situation is uncertain, but there is hope that it will not be a long-term problem. According to the report, jesus is a doubt for today’s crucial match at the emirates stadium. If jesus is ruled out, mikel arteta’s side will be in jeopardy, aiming to return to winning ways after a string of losses in succession. If arsenal aren’t allowed to play in a replay against jurgen klopp’s side, jesus will have time to recover ahead of the gunners’ next match against crystal palace on january 20.
The former manchester city star has a long history of knee problems. After undergoing surgery on the joint, he missed the first weeks of the season and three months of last season. Between october and november, the south american also missed about a month due to a hamstring injury. There is also doubt about oleksandr zinchenko’s availability, who is suffering from a calf injury. Zinchenko suffered a foot injury in last weekend’s defeat to fulham. Arsenal’s season has been beset by injuries. They are now without thomas partey, jurrien timber, and fabio vieira, except for jesus and zinchenko.
