James calls for Man City star to go for ‘the Holy Grail’ and to reject Arsenal this summer

David James has suggested that Gabriel Jesus would be better off rejecting Arsenal so he could have a “shared role” alongside Erling Haaland at Man City.

Jesus has been heavily linked with a move away from Man City ahead of this summer. This comes following Haaland’s arrival at the Etihad.

With the 21-year-old joining from Borussia Dortmund, Jesus would likely only be a bit-part player at City next term. He has been involved in 16 goals from his 28 league outings in 2021/22.

Arsenal are among the teams interested in signing Jesus from Man City. This is even with the Gunners missing out on a place in the Champions League.

James has hinted that it would be better for Jesus if he remained at Man City:

“If you look at Man City players’ appearances this season, Bernardo Silva and Rodri have played 30-plus Premier League games,” James told Genting Casino (via Metro).

“But all the players in that attacking line-up have played around 25 games, so they’re not playing every week. Pep’s (Guardiola) rotation has worked perfectly in the sense that they won the Premier League again.

“I’d imagine Haaland would fit into that mould, he’s not going to play every game.
