Gabriel Jesus insists he is "evolving" at Manchester City

Jesus "evolving" at Manchester City

Gabriel Jesus has claimed that Manchester City are improving his skill, as well as his "mind".

The Brazilian moved to the Etihad Stadium in January after a £27m deal was agreed with Palmeiras the previous summer.

In 20 appearances for Pep Guardiola's team, the forward has scored 12 goals, five of which during the current season.

Jesus also scored for his country Brazil in a 3-0 victory over Chile this week during the closing stages of the nation's World Cup qualifying campaign.

"I'm evolving, not only as a professional, but also in the head, in the mind," The Mirror quotes Jesus as saying. "I'm evolving more than last year, with many experiences in the national team and in Europe - this is doing me good.

"I will continue doing what I have always done, whether in Manchester or in the national team. I'm very happy about what I've been showing everyone, but I know I have to keep working, running, showing that I should be selected."

Jesus has not been able to find the target in his last three outings for City.
