The road back from an ACL injury is always long, as Arsenal fans will be well aware, and returning to the training places is just another step on that trip.

In the coming months, Jesus has other milestones to hit, such as training with the ball and training with the team, and even then Arsenal will not throw him straight back in competition matches.

Previously, Gunners has got older players to drop down to the U21’s for their first games back after such a long absence. That may be the case again for Jesus this season.

Despite all this, it is still encouraging to see Jesus continue to make positive progress. He will probably not be back in action until October or November, but it seems that he will have any role to play in the upcoming campaign.
