Arsenal have indicated they are seeking between €20-23 million (£18-20m) for Gabriel Jesus should they decide to sell the forward this summer, according to David Ornstein of The Athletic. The 29-year-old has one year remaining on his current contract at the Emirates Stadium, potentially allowing him to leave as a free agent next summer.
Jesus arrived at Arsenal in 2022 from Manchester City as a key signing for Mikel Arteta, representing the club’s ambition to challenge for the Premier League title. However, his position within the squad has become less secure following competition from Kai Havertz and, more recently, Viktor Gyokeres, who joined from Sporting CP last summer. During the 2026/27 season, Jesus scored six goals in 27 appearances, though he only started nine games.
Despite the increased competition, Jesus has publicly expressed his desire to remain at Arsenal. In an interview with The Players’ Tribune, he stated he has “unfinished business” at the club and wants to “make history” with the Gunners. He dismissed suggestions of moves to Saudi Arabia or a return to his native Brazil, indicating a commitment to the North London side, though his stance may evolve following Arsenal’s recent Premier League title win and upcoming Champions League final against PSG.
Several clubs have reportedly expressed interest in acquiring Jesus, with data analytics firm SciSports identifying Borussia Dortmund as the most suitable destination based on factors like player development and playing time, giving them an 87 ‘Club Fit’ score. Within the Premier League, Aston Villa were ranked as the best fit with a score of 83. Interestingly, Saudi Arabian side Al-Hilal also registered a high score of 76, though their appeal is primarily financial rather than developmental. The potential destinations suggest a varied market for the Brazilian international.
Arsenal’s valuation of Jesus reflects his remaining contract length and the emergence of other attacking options. A sale would provide funds for further squad investment, while allowing Jesus to seek a more prominent role elsewhere.
