Manchester City 'put £63m asking price on Gabriel Jesus'

Manchester City have reportedly signalled that they would not be prepared to sell Gabriel Jesus during this summer's transfer window for a figure under £63m.

The 23-year-old has scored 63 times in 140 appearances for City since arriving in January 2017, including 18 goals in 40 outings during the 2019-20 campaign.

Jesus has a contract at the Etihad Stadium until the summer of 2023, but there has been a host of speculation surrounding his future in recent weeks, with Inter Milan and Juventus both thought to be interested.

According to Sport Mediaset, Inter view the Brazil international as a possible replacement for Lautaro Martinez, who continues to be linked with a move to Barcelona.

However, the report claims that the Premier League champions have set an asking price of £63m for a player who has largely struggled to displace Sergio Aguero in the City XI.

Jesus has struck 10 times in 25 Premier League appearances during the 2019-20 campaign.
