Barcelona has expedited negotiations and is close to signing Brazilian forward Gabriel Jesus, currently with Arsenal, in a deal valued at 10 million euros.
The transfer market is experiencing days of intense activity, and Barcelona is emerging as the main protagonist in this final stretch. The Spanish club has made decisive progress in negotiations to secure the services of Gabriel Jesus, a forward who belongs to Arsenal. The transaction, which gained momentum rapidly since last Friday, is expected to be finalized before the closing of the transfer window in Spain, scheduled for next Tuesday.
The 29-year-old player’s departure from the London club had already been speculated, especially after the Brazilian was left out of the squad lists for the club’s first official matches of the season. The agreement, confirmed by international outlets and reported by the M360 Team, includes a three-year contract with the Blaugrana team.
Financial details and the market’s role
According to investigations by correspondent Fabrizio Romano, the fixed fee for the deal has been set at 10 million euros, equivalent to approximately R$ 60.1 million, a sum that may still be increased by performance-based bonuses. Although Napoli and Turkish clubs had shown real interest in the player, Barcelona‘s entry into the race was decisive for the outcome of the talks.
The negotiation happened quickly, it started on Friday, and the progress was also swift
the M360 Team noted when analyzing the speed of the process.
Career path and expectations
Discovered by Palmeiras, Gabriel Jesus solidified his career in European football by playing for Manchester City starting in 2017, before moving to Arsenal in 2022. With two appearances in the World Cup for the Brazil national team, the forward now seeks to regain his prominence on the European stage under the Catalan team.
Barcelona‘s next challenge will be to register the player in time to integrate him into the squad for the remainder of the European season. The success of the operation now depends solely on the formalization of bureaucratic procedures, in a race against time that engages the Spanish club’s football department until the official closing of the window.
