Gabriel Jesus reveals Arsenal forced him to train away from the team

Gabriel Jesus has shed light on his departure from Arsenal this summer as he begins a new chapter as a player for Barcelona in Spain, having spent four years on the books of Arsenal.

Jesus was one of the signings who helped take Arsenal to a new level and remained one of their important players during his time with the team, although he was never a prolific striker.

Jesus Finds Himself Out Of Favour

Jesus suffered a long-term injury that appeared to end the Gunners’ reliance on him. When he returned, Arsenal had signed Viktor Gyokeres, while Jesus was already behind Kai Havertz in the pecking order at the club.

The Gunners then asked Jesus to leave, and he was omitted from their matchday squad during the opening games of the season, which came as a surprise to some fans.

Fans had expected Jesus to remain part of the squad until he left the club, but that did not happen. The forward has now revealed that he was even told not to train with the team.

Jesus Reveals Training Decision

Jesus explained that he had completed Arsenal’s pre-season preparations before being separated from the rest of the squad. The Daily Mail reported his comments, as he said:

‘The truth is I was training, I did all the pre-season training with Arsenal normal and then obviously I knew already that probably I will not play there or get some opportunity.

‘But no-one told me nothing.

‘I’m a professional you know and then obviously I was training with the group and then from nothing they put me to train away from the group.’

His comments provide an insight into how his final period at Arsenal unfolded before his move to Barcelona. Jesus had continued to train despite recognising that his opportunities were likely to be limited.

The decision to separate him from the group ultimately confirmed that his time with the Gunners was coming to an end. His departure followed a difficult period in which injury had affected his position within the team.
