Arsenal's injury worries continue to plague the team as Gabriel Jesus becomes the latest player to face potential time on the sidelines. The Brazilian striker, who played a pivotal role in Arsenal's victory against Sevilla in the Champions League on Tuesday night, was forced to leave the pitch due to a slight hamstring concern.
Jesus showcased his brilliance during the match, setting up Gabriel Martinelli for the opening goal just before halftime and then scoring a magnificent curling shot to secure the second goal. While the Gunners successfully defended their lead and earned three valuable points, Jesus' injury cast a shadow over the victory.
Following his outstanding performance, Jesus took to social media to express his gratitude to the fans for their support, but also addressed the injury situation. "I felt something. Let's see. I did some tests with the physio, it looks not that big, but let's see. I have a scan, maybe tomorrow. I'm pretty sure it will be nothing," the striker said in an interview with TNT Sports.
The concern surrounding Jesus' injury has left Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta worried. Speaking to the media, Arteta expressed sadness over Jesus' condition, stating, "He felt something in his hamstring, and I'm worried about that."
The extent of Jesus' injury is uncertain, and his availability for the upcoming matches hangs in the balance. With Arsenal facing a crucial period in their domestic and European campaigns, losing Jesus would be a significant blow. The Gunners are currently battling for top honors in the Premier League and aiming to secure their place in the later stages of the Champions League.
Fans and teammates alike will anxiously await the results of Jesus' scan to determine the severity of his hamstring concern. Arsenal's medical staff will work closely with the striker to ensure the best course of action for his recovery and prevent any further setbacks.
As Gabriel Jesus looks to overcome his injury setback, Arsenal's depth will be tested once again. Arteta will need to rely on other attacking options to fill the void left by Jesus, further emphasizing the importance of squad rotation and player fitness.
Only time will tell when Gabriel Jesus will make his return to the pitch. Arsenal fans will keep their fingers crossed, hoping for a speedy recovery for the talented Brazilian striker who has already made a significant impact in his short time at the club.
