Arsenal striker Gabriel Jesus has been told to ‘step up’ to the plate by Premier League icon Gabriel Agbonlahor after a slow start to his campaign – with the Brazilian striker failing to register either a goal or an assist so far this season.

Jesus, who signed for Arsenal on a reported £265,000-per-week deal just over two years ago from Manchester City after failing to oust Sergio Aguero from the starting lineup at the Etihad Stadium, began his career in fine form for the Gunners as they agonisingly finished behind the Brazilian’s old club in the Premier League title race. But it’s been a nosedive since then, and this season especially, the striker has barely received any game time.

Agbonlahor: Jesus ‘Must Step Up’ to Arsenal Injury Crisis

Agbonlahor sees that as a huge problem. With injuries afforded to arguably their two best attacking players in Bukayo Saka and Martin Odegaard, Jesus needs to step up and be counted with chances and attacking threat being minimised by their absences.

And the former Aston Villa star aired his concerns over Jesus’ output in north London, stating that he hasn’t been great throughout the campaign which could affect Mikel Arteta’s chances of winning the Premier League. Speaking on talkSPORT, he said

This season has seen Kai Havertz play in the striker role, whilst Sterling and even Leandro Trossard have been made to lead the line with the Gunners dropping points in three of their eight games in the top-flight already.

With Eddie Nketiah being sold to Crystal Palace over the summer and no striker being brought in, it hints at Arsenal’s lack of trust in Jesus’ talents – even though he clearly has the ability.
