The now retired MMA superstar, 34, retired with a perfect 29-0 record after his win over Justin Gaethje in October 2020.
Now enjoying his time off from fighting, he was in London yesterday to watch Arsenal beat Manchester United 3-2.
That victory moved the Gunners back into a five-point lead at the top of the Premier League.
Khabib enjoyed the action from the luxury of a box at the Emirates on Sunday.
And he found the injured Brazilian forward sitting in the one next to him.
The 25-year-old Arsenal ace suffered a knee injury while representing his country at the World Cup in Qatar.
He underwent surgery and is now recovering in order to be back to help with his club’s title charge.
The Dagestan star and Jesus met at half-time and chatted – and Khabib has now provided some positive news to Gooners regarding the ex-Manchester City man.
According to the Daily Mail, He allegedly told the former fighter: “Maybe four or five weeks more I come back.”
Jesus has scored five goals so far for the Gunners and his return would provide Mikel Arteta with a huge boost.
