Gabriel Jesus is on AC Milan’s list of transfer targets for the summer window, though it remains to be seen what Arsenal’s stance on the move is.
Gianluca Di Marzio reports that AC Milan have begun their work on the summer transfer market, and Arsenal’s Gabriel Jesus is on their list of potential transfer targets.
Di Marzio claims Jesus is a top target for the Serie A club, though he adds that it remains to be seen whether Arsenal will let him go, and under what conditions.
Milan are hoping to return to the Champions League and a Serie A title race next season, and Di Marzio suggests Jesus could be the right player to aid them in that quest.
Jesus has become a bit of a fringe player for Arsenal this season, having to compete with Viktor Gyokeres and Kai Havertz for starts at centre-forward, and with a number of natural wingers for starts out wide.
Havertz’s latest injury setback is at least getting Jesus some minutes from the bench, but only three of his eight starts this season have come in the Premier League or the Champions League.
Yet Jesus’ one Champions League start is likely the one that put him on Milan’s radar, as he scored a brace against Inter Milan at the San Siro in January. Inter’s rivals may well enjoy the idea of the striker doing the same for them in the derby next season.
Jesus has five goals and one assist in 887 minutes for Arsenal in 2025/26, and it’s fair to cut him some slack given he spent the first few months of the campaign out with an ACL injury.
Though the 29-year-old is now back to fitness, it’s obviously more difficult to help a player build up momentum in the second half of the season.
Perhaps a move to Milan could help the Brazilian international to recapture his past form, but Arsenal will likely wait to make any firm decisions until after the end of the current campaign.
