The Brazilian striker, who featured for his country in the World Cup in Russia this summer, will extend his current deal by a further two years after notching 24 goals in 53 appearances for the Blues since he joined from Palmeiras in January 2017.

It will mean the 21 year old international will stay a further five years at the Etihad Stadium as City chase more silverware including the Champions League.

Jesus scored the winning goal against Southampton in May of this year which enabled City to notch up a Premier League record of 100 points in their title winning season.

As well as the league title, Jesus also lifted the Carabao Cup during the 2017-18 campaign and will look to win more silverware in the coming years with the club under manager Pep Guardiola.

Gabriel Jesus said: “I would like to thank the fans for the welcome and for how well they have treated me.

“I can say that it was the best decision I’ve made in my life to come to Manchester City because whilst I’m here I’m improving as a professional and as a person.

“Also thanks to the Club for being so organised and focused since I arrived. Pep had an important role in my signing, but also the Club.

“City is a huge Club and it is getting bigger and bigger so I just want to say thanks for everything. I hope that I can keep making the fans happy.”

Director of Football Txiki Begiristain added: “Gabriel is undoubtedly one of the best young forwards in world football, so to have him commit his future to us is a huge boost.

“There’s so much variety in his game. I know how much Pep enjoys working with him and I am really looking forward to watching his development in the coming years.”
