After recovering from a significant knee injury, he has appeared in 25 matches, scoring 5 goals and providing 2 assists. However, he has started just twice in the Premier League and once in Europe.

The 29-year-old moved to London in 2022 from Manchester City for €52M. His maiden campaign with Arsenal was his most prolific one. He has 64 caps with Brazil under his belt. His net salary is about €7M, right at the edge of what the Rossoneri pay their top players.
