The former captain of Aston Villa, Gabby Agbonlahor, has lauded Arsenal’s summer signing as the club’s Thierry Henry and Ian Wright.
Agbonlahor predicts that Jesus will score at least 15 goals for Mikel Arteta’s team this season, making him the third talisman for Arsenal after Wright and Henry.
Jesus was just acquired by Arsenal from the Premier League champions.
The international player from Brazil impressed during Arsenal’s preseason games, scoring seven goals in five games.
“He [Jesus] will get at least 15 Premier League goals, guaranteed. That’s huge and what Arsenal have been missing,” Agbonlahor told Football Insider.
“Over the years, they have had Ian Wright, Thierry Henry, now this is the next one for Arsenal.
“I’m sure he will be on penalties, he will be on everything, he will be the talisman.”
