The loan deal would require Flamengo to pay half of Jesus' wages, while Arsenal would cover the remaining cost. Jesus is currently recovering from an ACL injury and may not return to the pitch until September at the earliest.
The injury hasn't deterred Flamengo, as Jesus' role in the team will be limited now that Swedish striker Viktor Gyokeres is expected to join Arsenal soon. This development has led Flamengo to consider Jesus as a potential option for the loan.
