Arsenal striker Gabriel Jesus appears to have lost an insane amount of money after being banned from playing the Counter-Strike 2 video game.
The Brazilian striker played 81 minutes in Arsenal's 5-0 win over Crystal Palace on Saturday, registering an assist for Leandro Trossard.
But only a couple of days later and Jesus was on X, pleading with Counter-Strike for his account to be unbanned and sharing a link to his profile.

He wrote: "Hi @counterstrike my account received a VAC ban unfairly, can you help me? Follow the account link and print of the ban."
Counter-Strike, a tactical first person shooter gamer, is incredibly popular amongst Brazilians, with Neymar and Casemiro also big fans.
Jesus is an avid player and has reportedly spent close to $40,000 on skins in the game, including aa $800 M4A1-S Hot Rod gun which he has customised.
Jesus' steam account has been hit with a VAC (Valve anti-cheat) ban, with these suspensions imposed for a number of different reasons.

The most frequent grounds relates to cheating in some capacity, which can include using software to aid performance in the game.
There have been times where the ban has been handed out by mistake, notably accidental removal for those who use AMD GPU when a new driver update was released.
There is no word on what offence Jesus is believed to have committed to warrant a ban and clearly the former Manchester City forward thinks he's been hard done by.

However, the bans are normally permanent and cannot be overturned unless it is an error on the part of developers Valve.
And in another blow, all of the items will not be able to sell the skins he has acquired because trading is prohibited when banned.
Jesus has a Twitch account and once had 10,000 people tuning in for him and Neymar playing Counter-Strike.
