Jesus acknowledged the persistent pain but emphasized his determination to recover and contribute to Arsenal. His experience from Manchester City and participation in the Champions League make him a crucial part of Arteta’s plans for Arsenal.
Looking ahead to the decisive games in the Champions League and Premier League, Jesus stressed the importance of attention to detail and giving extra effort to support the team’s success. He emphasized the need to focus on each game as a final and to maintain a strong fighting spirit.
