Brazilian forward Gabriel Jesus has reportedly decided that he will leave Arsenal this summer, according to multiple transfer reports, with Serie A side AC Milan keen to secure his signature ahead of the 2026–27 season. Sources close to the negotiations suggest that Jesus’ future at the Emirates Stadium is increasingly likely to lie away from north London after four seasons with the Gunners.
Reports from Fichajes indicate AC Milan have included Jesus on their summer shortlist, marking him as a key target as the Rossoneri look to bolster their attacking options. The 29-year-old’s inclusion in Milan’s plans comes as the club seeks proven goal-scoring options to lead the line.
With just over a year remaining on his contract in Arsenal , the Brazilian striker’s future has become a priority discussion point for both Arsenal and potential suitors.
Milan’s interest in Jesus is rooted in a need for experience and versatility up front. The Serie A side have been exploring several attacking reinforcements, and Jesus’ blend of Premier League experience and European pedigree make him an attractive option for a club looking to return to greater competitiveness domestically and in continental competition.
At Arsenal, Jesus’ role has evolved significantly since his arrival from Manchester City in 2022. While he was initially a central part of the team’s attack, often featuring across the forward line, recent seasons have seen him fall down the pecking order.
Reports suggest that he has struggled to secure consistent starts under manager Mikel Arteta, with the emergence of other attacking options such as Viktor Gyökeres and Kai Havertz limiting his opportunities.
The shift in Arsenal’s attacking structure has fueled speculation about Jesus’ long-term future. After scoring 20 goals in 82 appearances across competitions for the club, the Brazilian has battled injuries and form issues that have affected his influence on the team’s overall output.
With limited game time this season and his contract approaching its final year, a departure looks increasingly likely unless a contract extension is agreed.
From a contractual perspective, Arsenal face a balancing act. Selling Jesus this summer would allow the club to recoup a transfer fee rather than risk losing him for free when his contract expires.
Sources suggest Arsenal could value Jesus around the €30 million mark, though negotiations with interested clubs like Milan could see that figure fluctuate depending on terms and conditions.
For Jesus, a move to Italy could offer a fresh challenge at a club where he might be viewed as a leading figure in the attack, rather than a rotation option. AC Milan’s interest reportedly remains strong, although discussions are still in early stages and no formal offer has been lodged at the time of writing.
