Gabriel Jesus said he has fulfilled a “dream” after completing his move to Barcelona from Arsenal. <\/p>\n

The Brazilian moves to the Spotify Camp Nou in a deal worth \u00a38.6m (\u20ac10m), where he has penned a deal until June 2029.<\/p>\n

The Jesus deal may not end Barcelona’s pursuit of Julian Alvarez. Sky Sports News<\/em> has been told they are completely separate.<\/p>\n

Jesus, who joined Arsenal from Manchester City in a \u00a345m deal four years ago, had also been subject to interest from Napoli.<\/p>\n

Barcelona boss Hansi Flick gives his verdict on the imminent arrival of Gabriel Jesus from Arsenal.<\/span>
\n <\/figcaption><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

He has scored 32 goals in 123 appearances for Arsenal, but managed just three Premier League starts last season.<\/p>\n

The 29-year-old missed most of last year after picking up a knee injury in a January 2025 FA Cup tie against Manchester United.<\/p>\n

Jesus has made 64 international appearances for Brazil but has not featured for the Selecao since November 2023.<\/p>\n

Jesus delights at ‘dream’ move<\/h3>\n

Speaking at his Barcelona unveiling, Jesus expressed his delight at the move having been training separately from his team-mates at Arsenal due to the uncertainty surrounding his future.<\/p>\n

“I have strong faith in God and I knew that if I did things well, anything could happen,” he said.<\/p>\n

“I have always been a guy who respects everyone, so I thought things would turn out well. I was working very hard at Arsenal, separately from the other players of course.<\/p>\n

“I kept giving my best because I knew a good thing would happen, and now it’s happened. A week ago, I received the message that it could happen. When I started to think it was a real possibility, it made me very excited, and made me want to be here a lot.”<\/p>\n

Jesus confirmed he spoke to countryman Raphinha and former Manchester City team-mates Joao Cancelo, Rodri and Eric Garcia when finalising the move.<\/p>\n

“They only had good things to say about Barcelona, the dressing room, the players, the staff, the coaching,” he added.<\/p>\n

“I have the opportunity now to be here at Barca now. I had the opportunity 10 years ago, but life took me in a different direction. But now, I can be here. It’s a dream for me.”<\/p>\n

Arsenal confirm Vieira sale<\/h3>\n

Arsenal<\/strong> also confirmed the sale of Fabio Vieira <\/strong>to Hamburg <\/strong>on Deadline Day. The deal for the midfielder is worth \u00a37.7m.<\/p>\n
