What happened. Napoli sold Romelu Lukaku to a Turkish club, raising funds and freeing up space to pursue Arsenal's Gabriel Jesus, who is entering the final year of his contract.

• Jesus has been at Arsenal since 2022 but slipped down the pecking order.
• Arsenal signed Viktor Gyokeres and Kai Havertz, reducing Jesus's role.
• Napoli's new boss Max Allegri is eyeing new recruits.

Jesus could leave Arsenal this summer, with Napoli offering a route out of north London.
