Recently, Gabriel Martinelli, a standout in Arsenal‘s lineup, revealed his pick for the most impressive performer during training. Without hesitation, he named Gabriel Jesus, synonymous with excellence, both on and off the field. Under the guidance of Mikel Arteta, Arsenal have grown tremendously.
Everyone knows the intensity of their training sessions at London Colney, and in this setting, Jesus shines the brightest. After transferring from Manchester City for £45 million, Jesus made a significant impact. He improved the team’s on-field performance. Additionally, he raised the bar in training.
Not Just a Match Day Marvel
For the 26-year-old Brazilian striker, moving from Manchester City to Arsenal was seamless. His presence boosted the team, significantly contributing to Arsenal’s title challenge last season. However, his brilliance doesn’t stop at matches. He displays his dedication and skill during intense training sessions as well.
During a candid TikTok interview with Footballer Fits, Martinelli, when asked about the team’s best trainer, immediately said,
“Jesus!”
This shows the mark Jesus has left on the team, pushing himself and motivating his teammates to do the same.
Doubts Surrounding Jesus Scoring Abilities
Although he receives much praise, rumors suggest Arsenal might search for a new top striker. Why? To potentially replace Gabriel Jesus and enhance the team’s scoring. Names like Ivan Toney and Napoli‘s Victor Osimhen emerge as possible signings.
Such whispers might worry Jesus, initially seen as Arsenal’s leading forward. For him to secure his spot and quieten critics, he must increase his goal count. Last season, he scored 11 goals but has missed 16 crucial chances in only 26 games.
Correcting these mistakes is vital for Jesus. He needs to score consistently to show his value to the team. If he doesn’t, the team might recruit a new forward.
