Everton's pursuit of Gabriel Jesus has been dealt a blow, despite Arsenal's reduced asking price of £20million-£25m. Sources have told Football Insider that the Toffees may still find the overall package and his wage demands expensive.
What's the latest on Gabriel Jesus?
The Gunners are now set to ask for a lower fee for the 29-year-old after a difficult 2025-26 campaign. Jesus made 14 Premier League appearances for Arsenal last season and netted three goals as he won the league title.
Can Gabriel Jesus solve Everton's attacking issues?
One of the biggest issues at Everton in recent years has been their lack of a consistent striker up top. Romelu Lukaku was arguably the club's last clinical attacker, and he left the Toffees back in 2017. David Moyes may be hoping that Jesus can finally solve this issue, and plenty of stats indicate that he could be a hit at Goodison Park.

Who else are Everton looking to sign?
Football Insider has exclusively revealed that Everton have made a preliminary move to sign West Ham United captain Jarrod Bowen this summer. The winger is keen on a move back to the Premier League and is expected to leave the Hammers after their relegation to the Championship.
Currently, J. Branthwaite, J. Grealish, and I. Gueye are sidelined due to injuries. The Toffees' last result was a 1-0 loss to Tottenham on 2026-05-24. With their recent form being 0W-1D-4L, Everton will be looking to strengthen their squad to improve their chances in the upcoming season.
