Arsenal forward Gabriel Jesus has provided fans with a detailed update on his rehabilitation journey following his anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury sustained during an FA Cup match against Manchester United in January. The injury required surgery, and Jesus has been diligently working on his recovery ever since.
In a video shared on his social media platforms, Jesus documented his progress over the first seven weeks of rehabilitation. The video begins with footage of the injury and surgery, followed by clips of his recovery process. It highlights key moments, such as transitioning from using a knee brace to performing exercises aimed at rebuilding strength and mobility. Jesus can be seen walking in a swimming pool, using an exercise bike, and carefully working on balance and stability with the help of Arsenal's medical team.
Accompanying the video, Jesus wrote: "The first seven weeks of recovery are done. Working hard and improving every day, thanks to God. Step by step!" His positive attitude and determination have been a source of inspiration for fans and teammates alike.
Despite the progress, it is expected that Jesus will remain sidelined until late September or October, as ACL injuries typically require a recovery period of at least nine months. Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has been exploring alternative options in the striker position during Jesus' absence, including Leandro Trossard and Mikel Merino.
This update offers hope to Arsenal supporters eagerly awaiting Jesus' return, as the Brazilian forward continues to make strides toward full fitness.
