Mikel Arteta says the “necessity” for Arsenal to add to their squad has ramped up after injuries to Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Jesus. Saka tore his hamstring in December and will be out of action until at least March, while Jesus is set for a long spell on the sidelines after injuring his knee earlier this month.

Gabriel Jesus' knee injury is “not looking good,” Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta said Tuesday. The Brazil striker was taken off after 40 minutes in Arsenal's FA Cup loss to Manchester United on Sunday.

Sources have told ESPN that Arsenal fear striker Gabriel Jesus will miss the rest of the season amid reports he has ruptured his ACL.

Arteta also launched a passionate defence of Kai Havertz after abhorrent social media posts were sent to the Germany international’s wife, Sophia.

Arsenal striker Gabriel Jesus has suffered a suspected anterior cruciate ligament injury with Mikel Arteta admitting he is “very worried” for the Brazilian. Jesus was stretchered off during Arsenal’s FA Cup defeat to Manchester United on Sunday and is set to see a specialist to determine the full extent of the injury.

Mikel Arteta has confirmed Arsenal are looking to sign a new striker in the remaining two weeks of the January transfer window. The Gunners are light on numbers in attack after a number of serious injuries.
