# Jesus will sign for City in coming days

Gabriel Jesus has sealed a move to Manchester City and it will be officially announced in the coming days.

[Sport-English](https://www.sport-english.com/en/noticias/barca/gabriel-jesus-his-way-manchester-city-5281117) are reporting that Manchester City have agreed on a €32m (£26.7m) deal with Palmeiras for the talented forward, and a deal will be concluded very soon.

However, Jesus has requested that City allow him to rejoin the Brazilian side on-loan until December so he can see out the season with his club.

Jesus has been with Palmeiras his entire career and has scored 26 goals in 67 matches in his senior career.

The 19-year-old is seen as one of the best youngsters in the world at the moment, with City beating a host of clubs to his signature. Barcelona, Bayern Munich, Juventus and Real Madrid were all thought to be interested, but City have stolen a march on their competitors to seal his signature.

Jesus will sign a five-year contract with Pep Guardiola’s side.
