In this new Rossoneri era (if it can even be called that), that profile often ends up in Milan’s sights, which is why Gabriel Jesus has emerged as a primary target for the striker role. By Milan’s standards, the Brazilian forward fits the bill perfectly.According to Gianluca Di Marzio, the Arsenal striker is now the club’s main objective, and the deal already appears to be moving forward—at least in terms of a verbal understanding.
