Watch Gabriel Jesus Chip Edouard Mendy As Brazilian Continues Strong Start To Arsenal Career

Gabriel Jesus could be the signing of the summer if he is able to take his pre-season form into the real games next month.

Arsenal's new no.9 nine had already scored three goals in his first three friendly outings for the Gunners before Saturday's clash with Chelsea in Orlando.

It took Jesus just 15 minutes at Camping World Stadium to find the net for the fourth time as a Gunners player.

The manner in which he took his goal made it clear that Jesus is a man high on confidence right now.

After being found by Granit Xhaka's first-time pass, Jesus took two touches to set himself before cooly chipping keeper Edouard Mendy, who had been named as the third best player from Africa, behind Sadio Mane and Mo Salah, earlier in the week.

Arsenal went on to beat Chelsea 4-0 after further strikes from Martin Odegaard, Bukayo Saka and Albert Sambi Lokonga.

Jesus moved to the Emirates Stadium from Manchester City earlier this month in a deal that earned his former club £45 million, according to Sky Sports.
