Arsenal transfer rumours: Deal agreed for Gabriel Jesus

Wrapping up the Arsenal transfer news, rumours and gossip in the 2022 summer window. Arsenal reach agreement in principle for Jesus

Arsenal have reached an agreement in principle with Manchester City to sign Gabriel Jesus.

There is still work to do to finalise the deal, including medical and personal terms but the fee is understood to be £45m.

Arsenal are expected to make an improved bid for Leeds United forward Raphinha.

The Gunners' opening bid for Raphinha was rejected as it fell below Leeds' valuation of the Brazil international.

Leeds are under no pressure to sell Raphinha, 25, as he has two years left on his contract - although he is not expected to sign a new deal at Elland Road.

Barcelona are also understood to want to sign Raphinha, whose agent is the former Barca player Deco.

The Brazil international joined Leeds from Ligue 1 side Rennes on a four-year deal in October 2020, contributing six goals and eight assists in 29 Premier League games in his debut campaign, while last season the player managed 11 goals and three assists in his 35 league matches.

Arsenal have completed the singing of Porto midfielder Fabio Vieira.

Porto confirmed the deal to sell Vieira earlier this week for £34m including add-ons.

The 22-year-old Portuguese is the Gunners' third summer arrival, after goalkeeper Matt Turner and Brazilian forward Marquinhos. Arsenal will pay £30m up front plus £4m in performance-related add-ons.

Arsenal have cooled their interest in Youri Tielemans making it more likely the Belgium midfielder will sign a one-year contract extension at Leicester.

Arsenal have long been admirers of Tielemans, who has just one year left on his existing Leicester deal, but with the Gunners having agreed a £34m deal for Porto
