Gabriel Jesus is said to be determined to continue to stick with Arsenal and complete the last year of his current contract. The Brazilian striker is receiving attention from many teams as he only has one year left on his contract with Arsenal.
Clubs in Italy and Spain are closely monitoring the situation of the 29-year-old striker, in the context that he has a rather limited number of appearances this season. Some teams in Brazil also pay special attention to Jesus.
However, the former Manchester City player - who moved to England in 2017 - wants to continue staying at Emirates. One of the factors affecting Jesus's decision is the fact that he is expected to be granted British citizenship this year.
Although clearly aware of the interest from other teams and wanting to play more regularly, Jesus still has great feelings for Arsenal and has no intention of leaving the club. Besides, the Brazilian striker also nurtures the ambition to make his mark in the Premier League.
After 4 years wearing the Arsenal shirt, Jesus wants to complete his current contract and continue to write history in the highest league in England. He currently has 79 goals in the Premier League, only 3 goals less than Roberto Firmino's record. If he continues to stay at Arsenal for another season, the opportunity for Jesus to become the Brazilian player with the most goals in Premier League history is completely feasible.
In addition to professional factors, Jesus's experience and bravery are also highly appreciated in Arsenal's dressing room. Although no longer playing an absolute role in attack, the Brazilian striker is still an important factor thanks to his ability to connect play, support pressing and convey fighting spirit to the young players of the London team.
The future of The Gunners' attack is still a question mark as the team may continue to reform in the summer of 2026, with Gabriel Jesus and Kai Havertz competing for a position with Viktor Gyokeres. However, Jesus will not rush to find a new destination.
Sharing after the match against Crystal Palace, Jesus said: "I heard a lot of talk about my future and honestly, it's not easy at all. I always want to improve myself and contribute more to the team. But I have great respect for the coach as well as my teammates.
I have dedicated everything since returning from injury. Many people thought I would need more time to regain my form, but right from the first match in the Champions League, I returned to my best condition and played in most matches.
The Brazilian striker also affirmed that he still has a lot of motivation to prove himself: "The future belongs to God. I still have one year of contract with Arsenal. I want to play and prove that I can still play football at a high level.
In the match against Crystal Palace, I could have scored two or three more goals. That shows that I am still capable of playing at a high level.
Under coach Mikel Arteta, the Emirates Stadium team has completed the Premier League championship goal, and ahead is the Champions League final against PSG. The presence of experienced players like Jesus is considered an important factor helping Arsenal maintain squad depth in the context of an increasingly harsh schedule.
