      But having previously been pictured in bed after his surgery, Jesus now appears to have a spring in his step and a smile on his face.
      The ex-Manchester City forward posted a pair of pictures to his Instagram page.
      In the photos he can be seen using crutches to hold him up, but still pulled a pose by sticking his tongue out and lifting one crutch off the floor.
      He accompanied the post with the caption: “Time to go home.”

      Jesus could be sidelined for up to three months following his surgery, which will come as a massive blow to Arsenal’s chances of lifting the Premier League.
      With Jesus out of action, Mikel Arteta’s only recognised striker option is Eddie Nketiah.
      This has left Arsenal considering the option of recalling Folarin Balogun from his loan at Ligue 1 side Reims.
      The 21-year-old has scored eight goals in 15 games for the French outfit.

      SunSport outlined five players who the Gunners could sign due to the absence of Jesus. More

      She also posted a picture of her eating sushi with the caption: “Japan, we are ready for you!”
      The cheeky jibe comes as Knoll drew “disapproving” attention for her racy outfits at this year’s World Cup and hit back at critics in a new racy Instagram post.
      The Croatian supermodel wowed in a bikini on Doha’s beachfront ahead of her side’s round of 16 clash with Japan this afternoon.

      Taking to Insta ahead of the huge tie, she showed off her curves in a tight one piece as she proudly waved the flag for the Vatreni.
      “Let’s party like it’s 1998,” she wrote, referencing the Croatians first successful run to the semi-final.
      She then added a love heart emoji – much to the affection of her 1.2 million adoring fans.
      Ivana has been ever present to cheer on her side in Doha and has already stunned in several plunging outfits bearing Croatia’s synonymous chequered coat of the arms.

      So far, the 30-year-old German born model wore a racy form fitting outfit to her side’s game against Morocco and shared snaps of herself in a revealing swimsuit while posing up by the curved skyscraper in Lusail.
      She then later caught the eye of glancing Qatari locals as she appeared in a red checked bikini top and tight red legging in the final group game clash against Belgium.
      All of which has earnt her the name as the “World Cup’s hottest fan.”
      According to the Mail Online, prominent Qatari entrepreneur Mohammed Hassan Al-Jefairi, claimed local men had been snapping away and staring because they disapproved of her outfit.
      Taking to Twitter following the 0-0 draw between Croatia and Belgium last Thursday he wrote: “Just for your info they take a photo not because they like her but because they don’t like the way she is mis-dressed on regards to our culture.
      “You can confirm this with any local Qatari Probably to report it.”
      Visitors to Qatar have been advised to cover their shoulders and avoid short skirts.
      And many glam footie fans have faced risk being slapped with huge fines or even put behind bars if they flash their figures while in the gulf nation.
      But Ivana has continued to poke fun at the coverage and previously she would wear a skimpy thong swimsuit on a Qatari beach before the competition began.

      Ronaldo’s physique is as sculpted as ever at the age of 37, no surprise given his strict fitness regime.
      And former Manchester United team-mate Dalot couldn’t resist feeling for himself in training for Tuesday’s last-16 World Cup tie with Switzerland.
      Dalot peeled Ronaldo’s sleeve up for a look and, as the legend seemed to clench the muscle in response, the right-back patted it approvingly.
      On the same day, Ron was pictured cuddling Georgina and his sister Katia Aveiro in a brief period of relaxation.

      And as Ronaldo wound down, Katia posted a cosy snap on her Instagram story of the United discard between the two women.
      The former Real Madrid and Juventus striker then took a selfie of the three of them plus two of Katia’s children.
