This was made public by Cadena Ser journalist, Anton Meana, who said Jesus has been offered to both Real and Atletico, with the player demanding £4.3m after tax per year.

The news is a blow to Arsenal, who planned to bring him as a new striker ahead of next summer, having bid goodbye to Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Alexandre Lacazette this year.
