Loan to Lincoln City[]

John-Jules was loaned to Lincoln City in January 2020.[11][12] The move was done by the Arsenal head coach Mikel Arteta in order for John-Jules to get first team football in his preferred role as a striker.[13] He made his Lincoln City debut against Shrewsbury Town.[13] Lincoln City manager Michael Appleton praised John-Jules and said he could see him starting in Arsenal's first team in the future.[14] He scored his first Football League goal against Blackpool in his next match.[15] He was injured and ruled out for the rest of the season in March 2020.[16] He subsequently returned to his parent club.[17]
