Arsenal may be losing Manchester City forward, Gabriel Jesus, to London rivals, Chelsea, who have become the latest club to show interest in the Brazilian.
According to Spanish outlet, AS, the Blues’ new owner, Todd Boehly, is keen on securing the services of the striker and making him one of his first signings.
Jesus has fallen down the pecking order at City following the £51 million signing of Erling Haaland from Borussia Dortmund, and the clubs’ gaffer, Pep Guardiola is willing to let him leave The Etihad.

La Liga champions, Real Madrid, are one of the teams to join the hunt for the striker after he was reportedly offered to the club, but they face plenty of competition.
Chelsea has shown “strong interest” in Gabriel Jesus, and are preparing a bid once the takeover of the club is officially completed by Boehly.
Jesus scored eight times in 21 starts for Man City in the 2021/22 campaign, he has been heavily linked with moves to two North London sides, Arsenal and Tottenham.
