Mikel Arteta has delivered a positive update on the fitness of his striker Gabriel Jesus, claiming that the Brazilian forward 'will be back soon' despite suffering a shock injury last week.
Arsenal are preparing to take on Manchester City in the FA Community Shield this weekend at Wembley and will be without the prolific forward, with the Spanish manager yesterday confirming he had undergone a procedure on his knee.
The 26-year-old notably had some issues with his knee last season after he limped off the pitch during Brazil's 2022 World Cup group-stage match against Cameroon, with a suspected medial ligament issue.
