Man City's response to Arsenal's Gabriel Jesus transfer request speaks volumes

Manchester City are seemingly playing hardball with Arsenal as they look to sign Gabriel Jesus this summer.

The Gunners have been in contact with Pep Guardiola's side over a potential deal for the Brazilian but City have slapped a £55million price tag on the striker, according to ESPN, which has put the Gunners off.

Jesus only has one year left on his deal at the Etihad and the north Londoners feel that price is too steep for a player they could feasibly sign as a free agent in 12 months' time. It has been claimed that City would be looking to cash in on Jesus given the fact his contract is winding down, as well as the fact they have signed Erling Haaland for £55m from Borussia Dortmund.
