Gabriel Jesus has missed a lot of chances at Manchester City.

The Brazilian forward has finally secured a move to the Emirates and was Arsenal’s most crucial target this summer.

The deal has costed Arsenal in the north of £45million as the Brazilian has entered the final year of his City contract.

The Gunners needed an immediate replacement after the departure of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Alexandre Lacazette.

Club legend Paul Merson believes Jesus will be a great addition to Arteta’s squad.

“I thought it was a great signing, I really did,” Merson said. “He’s a good player, but he misses chances. But I like players that get into good positions to miss chances. He doesn’t hide, he’s a centre-forward and likes scoring goals.

“They needed someone like Jesus. They only had Nketiah, you need more than one centre-forward. I think Jesus ticks the boxes, I think it is a major, major coup for Arsenal Football Club.”
