Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has said that he is excited about the return of the very unpredictable Gabriel Jesus from injury following a lengthy rehabilitation. Recall that the Brazilian forward has been sidelined by a brutal knee injury since January in an FA Cup encounter with Manchester United.
Reacting, Arteta said that he is thrilled to have Jesus back because he will definitely add something extra to Arsenal’s attack this season.
He added that everyone at the club is happy to see Gabriel finally recover from an injury that kept him out for so long.
His words, “I’m thrilled to have him. I think he’s going to add something extra to the team that we don’t have, and make sure that very soon we see him on that pitch making an impact for the team.
It’s about making the steps day-by-day in a different surrounding.
He’s been doing everything on his own; now he’s got players around him, very competitive players around him, and let’s see how he copes with that.
But he’s full of energy, I love the reaction of all his teammates when he first joined us and great to have him back.”
WOW.
