ARSENAL are strong favourites to sign Brazilian striker Gabriel Jesus from Manchester City in the summer.
Sky Bet place the north London club at 11/10 favourites, ahead of the likes of Barcelona and PSG, who are next closest, both with 8/1 odds.

The 25-year-old has struggled for regular game time this season; avictim of being part of such a deep squad that means it's hard to gain a consistent run of games.
Jesus has completed 90 minutes on just 10 occasions this season, and with the likely arrival of Erling Haaland in the summer, is thought to be looking for consistent game time elsewhere.
The Brazilian's contract runs out in 2023, so Manchester City may decide to cash in on him this summer to avoid losing the striker for free next year.
Jesus has 93 goals and 46 assists in 230 appearances for Manchester City since signing from Palmeiras for £29m in five and a half years ago as a 19-year-old.
Arsenal are seen as the runaway leaders in the chase to sign the striker as things stand, with Sky Bet offering 11/10 odds to sign him this summer.
The Gunners are desperate to sign a striker this coming window, with their only two first-team strikers, Alexandre Lacazette and Eddie Nketiah, both with contracts that expire at the end of the season and are as yet unrenewed.
Jesus, a young striker with lots of Premier League experience, including winning the title three times, could be exactly what Mikel Arteta needs for his Arsenal team.

Barcelona are also in the running to sign the Brazilian, given 8/1 odds by Sky Bet. The Spanish giants have enjoyed using the Premier League as their shopping market in the past 12 months, having singed five players from England's top flight in that time.
Barca are still keen to strengthen their striker department, having signed Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang from Arsenal in January, and with Memphis Depay still with a year left on his contract.
Newly crowned Ligue 1 champions PSG are also thought to be keen on Jesus, as they prepare for the likely departure of Kylian Mbappe to Real Madrid.
The sale of Mbappe would leave Mauro Icardi as the Parisians' only striker, who has scored just one league goal for the club since September.
Mauricio Pochettino's side also have Arnaud Kalimuendo due to return from his loan spell with Lens. The 20-year-old PSG academy graduate has impressed this season, scoring 11 goals in all competition.
Gabriel Jesus would most likely to be an improvement over both strikers should PSG seal his signature, but with Arsenal still clear frontrunners, the Parisians may have to look elsewhere.
