Rio Ferdinand backs Gabriel Jesus to shine for a team like Arsenal
Rio Ferdinand that he is certain that Gabriel Jesus would score plenty of goals for a team like Arsenal, as he also praised Eddie Nketiah for his weekend display.
Arsenal signing Jesus this summer appears to be becoming increasingly likely. Reports claimed that the Gunners had entered into advanced talks with the Manchester City striker about a summer move.
In fact, David Ornstein then suggested on Monday that personal terms looked to be done and dusted. The journalist did add however, that Arsenal still needed to enter into discussions with City over a possible fee.
Jesus, of course, proved what he can do at the weekend. He scored four as Pep Guardiola’s men blew Watford away at the Etihad Stadium. He is now into double figures for goals in all competitions this season.
Jesus has never quite been a consistent goalscorer for the Cityzens. And that may leave some wondering whether the man would be a good signing for Mikel Arteta’s side.
Ferdinand however, sees Jesus proving to be a real hit if he moves to the Emirates. He also made sure to laud Nketiah for his performance against Manchester United on Saturday.
“You speak to players about him, they appreciate him because he puts a good workload in, he has got quality,” .
“I think if he plays consistently in a team like Arsenal, I think he gets you goals. By the way, Nketiah at the weekend I thought was brilliant. Held up the ball well, brought others into the game.”
Arsenal signing Gabriel Jesus could be game-changer for Gunners and the Brazilian
Jesus has shone at times for Manchester City. But he has never been able to make himself the focal point of their attack. So you can understand why he may be interested in a move to a club such as Arsenal.
Arsenal meanwhile, definitely need at least one new striker this summer. And Jesus is someone who has the potential to be ‘‘.
The Gunners are improving and their current squad looks to have a really high ceiling. Adding Jesus to their ranks could prove to be an inspired piece of business for all parties.
