After signing Fabio Vieira last week, Arsenal are all set to complete another big summer signing -  Brazilian forward Gabriel Jesus from Manchester City.

According to reports, Jesus has agreed terms to join Arsenal on a five-year contract and the striker will cost £45m following a deal between the Gunners and City.

Under Pep Guardiola, Jesus played across the front three but failed to nail down the No 9 position. He managed 8 goals in 28 Premier League appearances last season. And the arrival of Erling Haaland in the summer meant Jesus was on his way out. 

Chelsea and Tottenham were also in the contention to sign the Brazilian star and while he's on his way to London, it's for their city rivals Arsenal.

The Brazilian netted 95 goals in 236 appearances for City after joining them in 2017.

He will be the fourth major signing of the summer for the Gunners. Marquinhos, Matt Turner and Fábio Vieira have already been signed by the club.
