Speculation surrounding a potential move for Arsenal forward Gabriel Jesus to Napoli has intensified. According to journalist Gianluca Di Marzio, the agent of the Brazilian striker, Giovanni Branchini, was seen visiting the Italian club's training facility.
Reports have previously suggested that the Partenopei are interested in the 29-year-old, with Arsenal allegedly prepared to sanction a sale for approximately 20 million euros.
However, Branchini's visit is not necessarily linked to negotiations regarding Jesus. The agent also represents Napoli head coach Massimiliano Allegri, meaning his presence could simply be related to the manager's operational matters.
Despite this, the interest in the Arsenal forward remains active. A significant hurdle for any potential deal is the squad size; Napoli must clear space by offloading several players before they can make a concrete move for the Brazilian international.
