Gabriel Jesus has emerged as a potential transfer target for several top European clubs, with sources close to the Brazilian forward informing CaughtOffside that the likes of AC Milan, Barcelona, and Newcastle United are closely tracking his situation. The interest comes as Jesus continues his recovery from a long-term knee injury that has sidelined him since January 2025.

Tottenham Interest

In addition to the aforementioned trio, North London rivals Tottenham Hotspur and Inter Milan have also been named among the clubs keeping tabs on the 28-year-old by CaughtOffside.

Despite the widespread interest, none of these teams are said to have submitted formal offers to Arsenal at this stage. The forward’s current medical condition remains a significant factor, and negotiations are expected to intensify only once there is more clarity regarding his fitness.

Jesus suffered an ACL injury earlier this year and has not featured for Arsenal since. The severity of the injury has led potential suitors to adopt a cautious approach.

No Offers Yet

While no club has submitted an official bid for Jesus, industry insiders suggest that once his medical clearance is confirmed, the situation could escalate quickly. A potential January move could be on the cards if the forward proves his fitness before the winter transfer window opens.

Meanwhile, interest from Brazilian clubs such as Palmeiras and Flamengo also lingers in the background, offering a possible route back to South America should a European move not materialise.
