Speaking to the press, Martinelli praised Jesus, stating that he is delighted to have him back on the pitch and also appreciates the time they spend together off the pitch.

Martinelli noted that Jesus' experience and talent make him a valuable asset to the team, and he hopes that manager Mikel Arteta will give him playing time in the coming games.

Jesus took the place of injured teenager Max Dowman in the Champions League squad, who will be sidelined for two months due to an ankle injury.

Martinelli believes that Jesus' return will be an emotional moment for both him and the fans, who have been optimistic about his recovery.

He expressed his admiration for Jesus' skills, saying that he has watched him play since he was 13 or 14 years old, when Jesus was playing for Palmeiras in Brazil.
