Arsenal striker Gabriel Jesus is ready to make his return after missing the opening games of the season due to a knee injury, manager Mikel Arteta said on Friday.
Jesus underwent a minor knee operation before the season started after sustaining an injury at the Qatar World Cup.
“It was a big blow for him, after the pre-season that he had to have another surgery, but he’s looking really sharp, he trained the full week really good, so he’s ready to go,” the manager told reporters ahead of the game with Fulham.
When pressed on whether the Brazilian could be involved in Saturday’s game, Arteta was very positive.
“He is ready to go. (From the start?) Let’s see.”
