The Premier League Battles for Igor Jesus
Botafogo, aware of the increasing value of their star player, expects offers ranging between 35 and 40 million euros for his transfer. The Brazilian club had previously rejected a 10 million euro offer, a sum that now seems distant given Igor Jesús’s demonstrated potential both at his club and in the national team.
Among the interested teams, Arsenal stands out, with their football director, Edu Gaspar, closely monitoring Igor’s progress since he joined Botafogo. The “Gunners” aim to secure his signing for 2025, indicating the London club’s pursuit of a long-term offensive talent. Yet, they are not alone in this race, as other English clubs like Chelsea and Newcastle are also keeping a close eye on the player.
With seven goals and an assist in 17 matches for Botafogo, Igor Jesús is emerging as one of Brazil’s most promising forwards, with his future potentially lying in European football’s elite, particularly in the fiercely competitive Premier League.
