Mikel Arteta says that Gabriel Jesus has returned to fitness ahead of schedule, after being out since the start of the year with an ACL injury.
The Brazilian forward has been ruled out since going off injured against Manchester United back in January, but returned to the squad for our Premier League draw with Chelsea late last month, albeit it without making it onto the pitch.
Now, having progressed well in training, he’s been added to the Champions League squad, in time to face Club Brugge on Wednesday evening. Jesus is able to be included due to an injury to Max Dowman, and he will take the teenager’s place on the UEFA A List.
