Gabriel Jesus admits he was keen to remain involved in Arsenal’s Premier League title hunt during his three-month absence.

The 25-year-old forward returned to action last weekend and also came off the bench in Sunday’s 4-1 win over Crystal Palace, a result which moved the Gunners eight points clear at the top of the table heading into the international break.
