Arsenal’s players are still celebrating their incredible Premier League title triumph.

After waiting 22 long years to become champions of England again, emotions around the club are understandably sky high.

The squad celebrated together on Tuesday night, first at the Sobha Realty Training Centre before continuing the party in London.

This should be a moment where Arsenal’s players have absolutely nothing else on their minds apart from enjoying what they have achieved together.

However, Gabriel Jesus has already admitted that he is thinking about a transfer instead.

Gabriel Jesus admits he thinks about joining Palmeiras every day

Jesus has always had a very emotional connection with Palmeiras.

The Brazilian came through the club’s academy and became a star there before earning his move to Manchester City as a teenager.

Even after establishing himself in Europe, he has never hidden how much Palmeiras still means to him personally.

Now, just days after helping Arsenal win the Premier League title, Jesus has openly admitted that returning to Brazil is constantly on his mind.

Speaking about joining Palmeiras, the Arsenal forward told ESPN: “I think about it every day, I follow it. I watched yesterday’s game, unfortunately, we lost [to Cerro Porteño].

It’s my dream, I’ve already made it clear that one day I’ll come back, I just don’t know when, if it’s today, tomorrow, then I think about it every day.

“The future belongs to God, it’s a club I have a lot of affection for, I’m a passionate fan, I’ve said a lot and my option when I return to Brazil will always be Palmeiras.”

Those comments will naturally spark speculation about Jesus’ future, especially with Arsenal expected to reshape parts of their attack again this summer.

Gabriel Jesus deserves huge credit for Arsenal’s title win

Even though Jesus has not been one of Arsenal’s main stars on the pitch this season, he still deserves enormous credit for helping transform this football club.

It was after him and Oleksandr Zinchenko arrived from Manchester City that Arsenal’s mentality genuinely started to change.

Those two brought winning experience, belief and elite standards into the dressing room at a time when Arsenal desperately needed it.

Since then, the Gunners have competed for the title every single season before finally getting over the line this year.

Jesus played a massive role in laying the foundations for that success, even if injuries stopped him from consistently showing his best football.

For everything he has contributed behind the scenes and on the pitch over the last few years, he fully deserves his Premier League winner’s medal.
