Jesus has been linked with a return to Brazil, with his former side Palmeiras said to be interested in taking the struggling striker back to South America.
The 27-year-old has scored just one goal in his past 31 games for Arsenal but Arteta has ruled out any chance of a January exit from Emirates Stadium.
Asked about reports in Brazil that Arsenal would let Jesus go in January, Arteta said on Tuesday: “No, no sense.”

Jesus has made just six starts for the Gunners this season, 12 substitute appearances and has scored just one goal.
