ARSENAL striker Gabriel Jesus is set to fly to Brazil for international duty- despite being injured.<\/p>\n
The 26-year-old picked up a knock during Arsenal's Champions League clash with Sevilla last month.<\/p>\n
\n<\/p>\n
SunSport recently revealed that the Gunners do not expect him to be back until December as they do not want to risk aggravating the hamstring issue.<\/p>\n
However, Jesus was called up to the Brazil national team this week for two upcoming World Cup qualifiers.<\/p>\n
Mikel Arteta subsequently revealed that the striker is "far from" ready to train properly, let alone play.<\/p>\n
The Spaniard told ESPN: "I don't know, I'm going to talk to the doctors and him, because he didn't do any training with us.<\/p>\n
"He's far from working with the team, but it's an internal communication between the club and the national team. The first intention is always to seek the best for the player."<\/p>\n Despite his injury, Jesus is still expected to travel to South America for international duty.<\/p>\n According to ESPN, Brazil officials want him to be assessed by Fernando Diniz and his medical team.<\/p>\n And if he is deemed not fit enough to play, the striker could be cut from the squad and forced to fly 5,000 miles straight back to London.<\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n Discussing his squad selection earlier this week, Diniz said: "We're going to bring Gabriel in to find out the real conditions, because we believe he can be fit enough to play.<\/p>\n "We have 24 players on the list, and if something happens to him we won't need to change the squad."<\/p>\n Jesus was absent from the Arsenal squad as the Gunners cruised to a 3-1 win over Burnley on Saturday.<\/p>\n He has been limited to just seven Premier League appearances this season due to injury.<\/p>\n<\/picture>'THEATRE OF CHIPS' <\/span><\/p>\n
