Arsenal's players have been making a number of interesting predictions about their teammates for the new season.
Gabriel Jesus was tipped to be the top goalscorer, while Martin Odegaard tipped Bukayo Saka to score the Goal of the Season.
Speaking to the Premier League on TikTok, Riccardo Calafiori has got involved in making his own prediction, and he's made an interesting claim about Gabriel Jesus.
Indeed, Calafiori has interestingly tipped Jesus to score a bicycle kick for Arsenal this season, claiming that he has the technique to score this kind of goal.
Riccardo Calafiori makes Gabriel Jesus prediction
The defender spoke about Jesus, claiming that he thinks he can score a bicycle kick this season.
"Gabriel Jesus will score a bicycle kick, because he has the technique to make this kind of goal," Calafiori said.

It's interesting to predict a player to score a bicycle kick, but if there's anyone at Arsenal who can pull this off, it's Jesus.
Jesus is your typical Brazilian striker. He has those moments of brilliance that he can just pull from out of nowhere.
Brazilians love a bicycle kick, and Jesus certainly has the technique, timing and ability to pull one off.
Considering the number of crosses Arsenal put into the box, it wouldn't be a surprise if Jesus did nail one of these types of goals this season.
Of course, no player goes into a game thinking that they're going to score one of these goals, but if the opportunity did arise, we'd certainly back Jesus to execute brilliantly and smash a bicycle kick past any goalkeeper.
Jesus could be set for a big season at Arsenal if he can return to his best form and full fitness.
