Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola remained coy when asked about Gabriel Jesus's future at the Etihad Stadium.

Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola remained coy when asked whether Gabriel Jesus could leave the Etihad Stadium during this summer's transfer window.

The 25-year-old scored four times in his side's 5-1 win over Watford on Saturday, making it 11 goals and 12 assists in 35 appearances for the Citizens during the 2021-22 campaign.

Jesus only has little over 12 months left to run on his contract in Manchester, though, and there has been a host of speculation surrounding his future in recent days.

Barcelona, Arsenal and Juventus are all believed to be interested in signing the Brazil international during this summer's transfer window.

Guardiola lavished praise on Jesus for his performance against Watford on Saturday but did not offer any guarantees when it came to his future at the club.

"I'm so happy for Gabriel Jesus, really. I want to tell you something; Gabriel's our player. I don't know what is going to happen - but he is a Man City player", Guardiola told reporters.

The forward has scored 93 goals and registered 46 assists in 230 appearances for Man City since making the move from Palmeiras in January 2017.
