We bring you the latest update on Gabriel Jesus Transfer news, we confirmed that the former Man City forward has become Arsenal’s second major signing this summer after the arrival of Fabio Vieira from Porto.

Arsenal have been in talks with Manchester City for weeks seeking to pull a deal with the Brazil international who has the intention of leaving Etihad stadium this summer.
Mikel Arteta has prioritized the Brazilian as his target in an attempt to reinforce his attacking line which has not been in good shape since the exit of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang.

How Much Did Arsenal Signed Gabriel Jesus?

Gabriel Jesus became arsenal’s latest signing after he agreed on a move to the London club for a fee of £45m, a deal that will keep him at the club until 2027.
Edu who is Arsenal’s technical director and fellow Brazilian, and the team’s head coach Mikel Arteta were the frontier of the deal that ensure the forward arrive at Emirate Stadium in preparation for the forthcoming season.
Arteta has worked with Gabriel Jesus in the past at Manchester as a member of the coaching staff under Pep Guardiola and knows exactly how to make things work with the 25-year-old striker at Emirate.

Why Did Gabriel Jesus Left Manchester City to Europa League-Bound Arsenal?

As expected, the arrival of Erling Haaland at Manchester City will limit the playing time of Gabriel Jesus up front. Gabriel Jesus who is in the final year of his contract with City thought it wise to look elsewhere ahead of next season as he may have to start many games from the bench if he must remain at the Etihad next season.

Jesus has been a great forward under the Manchester City boss as he fits in across the front three positions but has been struggling to fit into Sergio Aguero’s shoe as the club’s No.9. He managed to net 8 goals in 28 appearances in the premier league last season.
The 25-year-old has become Arsenal’s fourth signing in the summer transfer window after Arteta’s side brought in Marquinhos, Matt Turner, and Fábio Vieira earlier in the summer transfers.

When Will Gabriel Jesus be Unveiled at Emirate?

After successfully landing the former Man City man at Emirate Stadium, Arsenal are set to unveil him before the end of the week including his shirt number at the London club.

The north London club has already signed and unveiled Porto midfielder Fabio Vieria this summer and are keen on signing Leeds United winger Raphinha.

Gabriel Jesus Stats in the Premier League?

The Brazillian forward has scored 58 goals and 29 assists in the Premier League since he joined Manchester City in 2016-17.

Though he joined the Guardiola side as a teenager, he had done well to win eight trophies during his sojourn at Etihad Stadium including four Premier League titles, three League Cups, and one FA Cup.

Which Shirt Number will Gabriel Jesus wear at Arsenal?

As of June 26, the following squad numbers are still vacant and available at Arsenal: 9, 12, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, and likewise shirt numbers 35 to 100.

The above are available for Jesus and no doubt in a few days to come we will be seeing the new attacker wearing either of them.

Other numbers are available but they are occupied by some of Arsenal’s loanees who may probably return to the club and occupy their rightful shirt number. They are Hector Bellerin (2), Ainsley Maitland-Niles (15), Pablo Mari (22), Runar Alex Runarsson (13), Folarin Balogun (26), and Reiss Nelson (24). While William Saliba (4) and Lucas Torreira (11) have had their shirt numbers changed.

Some Arsenal Shirt Numbers that Might Be Vacant soon

Arsenal are on a mission to make their squad stronger and not larger as such there is a high probability that some players will be exiting the Emirate Stadium even as we welcome the new legs.

Kieran Tierney’s jersey (3) will be available should he exit the club before the end of the summer transfer window, though the number will not be suiting for the incoming attacker. Cedric Soares (17), Nuno Tavares (20), and Albert Sambi Lokonga (23) are all one leg out of the club, should they leave the club their jersey numbers will be among those we will be expecting Jesus to wear.

Some Shirt Numbers Gabriel Jesus Had Worn in History

While at Club Palmeiras, Jesus wore shirt number 33, consequent to his arrival at Manchester City in 2017. He also occupied shirt number 33 but switched to shirt number 9.

The shirt number 33 is currently not available at Arsenal but should Okonkwo’s loan move pulls through, the shirt number will be an available option for the Brazillian.

Also, Jesus has worn the shirt number 9 jersey for Brazil, and as expected the number is very much available at Arsenal after the exit of the club’s captain Alexandre Lacazette who returned to Lyon this summer.

How Arsenal Could Lineup with Gabriel Jesus as an Attacker

Every football fan will believe that Gabriel Jesus was signed to replace the Alexandre Lacazette who returned to his former club Lyon after the expiration of his contract.

Arsenal had suffered a goal drought in their 2021/22 campaign as they lack a decent striker upfront. Though Jesus is not the best striker in the league, he has done well in a club like City where the coach has a plethora of options to make when choosing who and who not to play. He scored quite some goals and made remarkable assists good enough to be associated with Arteta’s side.

If the 25-year-old Brazillian took the position of a center forward, then what we should be asking is who should the coach play alongside the new striker. Bukayo Saka’s position on the right-wing is well reserved for the English lad but the same cannot be said for the left-wing which has many players vying for the position with Gabriel Martinelli, Emile Smith Rowe, and Fabio Vieira all keen on securing a place in the starting lineup – and possibly Raphinha may join the drama soon.

Potential lineups:

Bukayo Saka (RW) – Gabriel Jesus (CF) – Smith Rowe (LW)

Bukayo Saka (RW) – Gabriel Jesus (CF) – Martinelli (LW)

Fabio Vieira (RW) – Gabriel Jesus (CF) – Smith Rowe (LW)

Fabio Vieira (RW) – Gabriel Jesus (CF) – Martinelli (LW)

Fabio Vieira (RW) – Gabriel Jesus (CF) – Bukayo Saka (LW)

How Arsenal Could Lineup with Gabriel Jesus as an Winger

Inasmuch as we expect Jesus as Arsenal top striker come next season, one should not be surprised if he occupies the right-wing. Because we saw him playing most of his games last season from the wing while at Man City.

If Jesus was made to play from the flank at Arsenal as he often did for Manchester City, then it may require either Eddie Nketiah or Gabriel Martinelli to act as the top striker while Bukayo Saka take the other winf to complete the front three for Arteta.

Potential lineups:

Gabriel Jesus (RW) – Gabriel Martinelli (CF) – Bukayo Saka (LW)

Gabriel Jesus (RW) – Nketiah (CF) – Bukayo Saka (LW)

Gabriel Jesus (RW) – Nketiah (CF) – Smith Rowe (LW)

Gabriel Jesus (RW) – Nketiah (CF) – Gabriel Martinelli (LW)

Bukayo Saka (RW) – Nketiah (CF) – Gabriel Jesus (LW)

Gabriel Jesus (RW) – Gabriel Martinelli (CF) – Smith Rowe (LW)

Bukayo Saka (RW) – Gabriel Martinelli (CF) – Gabriel Jesus (LW)

Adrie van der Poel deelt verontrustend bericht over Mathieu

Published

January 3, 2026

90minsoccer

Wout van Aert kende een dramatische afloop aan de cross in Mol, maar ook Mathieu van der Poel kwam niet ongeschonden uit deze wedstrijd. De Nederlander had het bijzonder koud, en kwam zelf eerder ook ten val. Vader Adrie zag daar een probleem.

Valpartij had invloed

Nochtans maakte Van der Poel duidelijk dat hij geen schade heeft overgehouden aan zijn tuimeling: “Eigenlijk viel ik zelfs nog zacht”, aldus de Nederlander. “Ik kreeg gewoon mijn voet niet uit mijn klikpedaal in het zand, waardoor ik stomweg omviel. Maar ik heb er gelukkig geen last van.”

Zo zag vader Adrie het echter niet tijdens de wedstrijd. In een interview met Sporza stelde hij immers dat Van der Poel last ondervond van zijn eerdere valpartij, eerder nog dan van de koude. Al voegde Adrie er ook wel aan toe dat zijn zoon niet bepaald staat te springen voor een koers in de sneeuw.

Van der Poel viseert enkel de koude

Reken daarbij nog de haast ondragelijke koude, en we kregen een verkleumde Van der Poel te zien na de finish. In zijn interviews achteraf stond hij nog steeds te bibberen, en maakte de wereldkampioen duidelijk dat hij behoorlijk hard had afgezien.

“Het was geen aangename cross. Ik heb het nu al een beetje warmer, maar ik heb zeker veel koud geleden vandaag”, luidde het bij MVDP. “Je weet ook dat wanneer je nadien weer opwarmt, het vijf minuten echt veel pijn gaat doen. Met dat gevoel was ik de laatste rondes al bezig.”

Voor Van der Poel was de conclusie dan ook duidelijk: “Dit was de moeilijkste wedstrijd van het jaar. Na een tijd hadden mijn handen en voeten zo veel koud dat het niet meer vanzelf ging.” Nu maar hopen dat vader Adrie toch geen gelijk krijgt over een mogelijke blessure, die door onderkoeling mogelijk onder de radar zou zijn gebleven.

Manchester United vs Chelsea: Get the detailed Preview, Head-to-Head, Team news and Prediction Tips here as the Red Devils welcome Gunners.

The Red Devils will be hosting visitors Chelsea at Old Trafford in the Premier League fixture on Thursday

Here is a thorough match preview on the recent performance, Current form, Head-to-Head, and statistics for Manchester United vs Chelsea – along with the latest betting tips.

Manchester United

L D L W L L
Manchester United have not been in their best performance in recent time. The red devils have only one win in their last six matches. They will be hoping to return to winning ways after the 3-1 Premier League defeat in their last game at Emirates Stadium.

In their away match at Emirates Stadium, Manchester United were outclassed by the Gunners, as the Red Devils managed 45% possession and 14 shot attempt with only 5 of them on target. Cristiano Ronaldo came to the rescue in 34th-minute after the visitors were 2-0 down.

While Arsenal on the other hand enjoyed 55% ball possession, had 14 shots with 7 on target. Two early goals from Nuno Tavares in the 3rd minute, and Bukayo Saka in the 32nd minute gave the gunners a comfortable lead. Bruno Fernandes failed to convert a spot-kick as Granit Xhaka sealed the victory for Arsenal in the 70th minute.

Manchester United’s recent performance has been worse than usual. They have conceded in all of their last 6 matches, amounting to 12 goals conceded in 6 matches. This is the kind of record every Chelsea fan will like to hear right now.

PRE-MATCH FACTS

The Red Devils have not lost any of their league matches against Chelsea in their last 8 matches. That is quite a long run between the two clubs without a loss.
However, despite their 8 matches unbeaten run against the Blues, they haven’t won against Chelsea in their last 3 premier league matches.
And lastly, Manchester United haven’t lost against Chelsea in their previous 7 league matches at home.

Chelsea

L W W W L W
Chelsea are heading into the match against Manchester United as the favorite contenders. The blues recorded a slim 1-0 victory against West Ham United in the Premier League fixture on Sunday

Chelsea who welcomed West Ham United enjoyed a 67% possession and 26 shots attempt with only 5 on target. Despite the large possession of the ball, the blue’s attack was blunt firing 21 shots off-target. Thanks to Christian Pulisic’s stoppage-time goal that secured the victory for the home team. West Ham United tried to get at least a point off the current world champions, managed 33% ball possession, and got 6 attempts with only 2 on target.

Looking at their last 6 premier league fixtures, Chelsea have won 4 and loss 2 scoring 15 goals. Remarkably, the blues scored in all of their last 6 premier league matches and conceded 9 goals.

PAST MEETINGS WITH MANCHESTER UNITED

In their previous meetings, Chelsea have not won against Manchester United at Old Trafford in the previous 8 league matches. Also, Chelsea have not been defeated in their last 5 away league matches

HEAD-TO-HEAD

This fixture is one of the biggest matches in the English Premier League. Looking at their head-to-head meetings in the Premier League stretching from the 2018/2019 season to date, both teams have met six times, Manchester United won 2 of these games while Chelsea won 1, and a record of 3 draws.

INJURY UPDATE: Manchester United

According to Manchester United coach Ralf Rangnick, the following players will not be available for the match against Chelsea at Old Trafford.

Paul Pogba (Calf Injury)

Fred (Problems with the hip flexor)

Edinson Cavani (Calf Injury)

Luke Shaw (Leg Injury)

INJURY UPDATE: Chelsea

According to Chelsea boss Thomas Tuchel, only Ben Chilwell who suffered a Ruptured cruciate ligament, and will not be available for the trip to Old Trafford.

Prediction

Considering their recent performance, Manchester United will need a miracle to win all 3 points against this Chelsea side. I think the best the Red devils can do is to pick a point.
I’m tipping over 1.5 goals for this match.
