It was reported today that City’s sporting director had told a fan that the Palmeiras striker would join the club.

However, Fantagazzetta has contacted the youngster’s agent who insists all options are still open.

“The big clubs in Europe are very interested in the lad and there’s ongoing contact,” Cristiano Simoes confirmed.

“Manchester City are interested, as are other top clubs, but I want to clarify that there’s no definitive agreement of any kind.

“Are Inter still in the race? I repeat, everything is open. Gabriel Jesus is a Palmeiras player, anyone who wants him must talk to his club and find an agreement.

“At the moment, I repeat, no negotiations are concluded. The price is the buyout clause, which amounts to €40m.

“He’ll definitely stay in Brazil until December, but he could also stay longer. Nothing has been decided.”
