Brazil coach Fernando Diniz intends to start Arsenal striker Gabriel Jesus against Argentina.

Globo Esporte reports he is set to start in Tuesday's crunch World Cup qualifier against Argentina.

Diniz is turning to Gabriel Jesus after defeat in Colombia on Thursday.

The striker missed the first three games of Arsenal's season with a knee injury. He then picked up a hamstring problem in October's win at Sevilla.

The striker is yet to make an appearance since, which leaves Arsenal concerned with Diniz's plans for Tuesday.
