What Gabriel Jesus did with former Chelsea star after Arsenal 3-1 win over Orlando City

Arsenal star Gabriel Jesus impressed once again during the Gunners' 3-1 win over Orlando City at the Exploria Stadium.

Jesus signed for Arsenal after completing a £45million move to the Emirates and joining up with Mikel Arteta again. The Brazilian striker has impressed in pre-season for the Gunners, scoring three goals in his first two games.

In the north Londoners' previous pre-season fixture against Everton, Jesus was involved in an altercation with defender Yerry Mina and has since spoken about the incident. Oleksandr Zinchenko was in attendance last night and is set to become Arsenal's fifth summer signing and football.london understands the Ukraine international will sign a four-year deal after completing a £32million move, following Jesus from Manchester City to the Emirates.

Jesus came on as a substitute in the win over Orlando City last night and had a part to play in Eddie Nketiah's goal in yet another standout display for his new club. After a third successive brilliant display, Jesus did something that caught Arsenal and Chelsea fans' attention.

The new Gunners star posed for a photo with former Blues striker Alexandre Pato as the Brazilian duo swapped shirts following the game. Pato spent half a season on loan with Chelsea but made just two appearances and scored once in an underwhelming spell at Stamford Bridge.

Jesus has already proved to be an exceptional Brazilian talent in the Premier League and is currently the English top-flight's second top goal scorer, behind Liverpool's Roberto Firmino, having scored 58 league goals during his time with City. The 25-year-old now embarks on a new chapter in north London as he becomes the main man in Arteta's attack, hoping to fire Arsenal to a top four spot next term.
