"Gabriel Jesus has been offered to AC Milan for the January mercato, but it seems they will not take the opportunity up. Massimiliano Allegri has wanted a physical striker this season, which is why Niclas Fullkrug is on his way to Milan shortly. However, another 'proper' striker probably would not be rejected, given the lack of goals from their true options."
"Christopher Nkunku and Santiago Gimenez, two expensive operations from the past 12 months, have not impressed this season, and an exit could be on the cards. If they are to depart, though, it will not be to sanction a move for Jesus, as Tuttosport (via MilanNews) reports. The Brazilian has been offered to the Rossoneri, and there would be wiggle room in his salary to make a deal occur."
"Nevertheless, there are concerns about his physical condition, which makes a deal impossible to commit to. He has only just returned from an injury, and the past few years of his career have been plagued with time out. It is worth noting that the deal has only been rejected at the moment, so it could reignite later in the mercato. For now, no, but with longer to prove himself, things could change."
Gabriel Jesus was offered to AC Milan for the January mercato but the club declined the opportunity for now. Massimiliano Allegri prefers a physical striker, which explains the imminent arrival of Niclas Fullkrug, though another conventional striker could be accepted because current options lack goals. Christopher Nkunku and Santiago Gimenez have underperformed this season and could leave. The Brazilian's salary could be accommodated, yet concerns about his recent injury history and recurring time out make a commitment unfeasible at present. The rejection is temporary and the possibility of reconsideration remains if he demonstrates sustained fitness.
