Napoli is considering a move for Arsenal striker Gabriel Jesus, who is valued at £17m. The 29-year-old Brazilian was Arsenal's third-choice striker last season, managing limited playing time. With his contract expiring next summer and Arsenal already fielding interest from other clubs, they appear willing to sell him during this transfer window. Jesus, who may need to accept a salary reduction to join Napoli, has yet to initiate formal negotiations. Napoli seeks an experienced striker to bolster their lineup amid potential departures.
- •Jesus played only 421 minutes in the Premier League last season.
- •Arsenal's striking options include Viktor Gyokeres and Kai Havertz.
- •Jesus may face a salary cut from £265,000 to around £182,000 per week.
- •Potential departures from Napoli could increase demand for a forward.
