Manchester City attacker Gabriel Jesus refuses to commit his future to the club, amid links with a move to Arsenal in light of Man City's pursuit of Erling Braut Haaland.

Manchester City attacker Gabriel Jesus has refused to rule out an exit from the Etihad this summer, amid links with fellow Premier League outfit Arsenal.

The 25-year-old has made 35 appearances for Pep Guardiola's side this season, scoring 11 goals and that tally was significantly increased on Saturday, when he netted four against Watford.

However, Man City have been heavily linked with Borussia Dortmund's Erling Braut Haaland, and his arrival in Manchester may limit Jesus's gametime considerably.

On his future, Jesus told reporters: "It's not time to think about this. You expect me to say this, but it's true. This is no time to think about this. Now is the best moment of the season. I want to enjoy, to keep focused on my team, with my teammates, to fight for the Premier League.

"I won it with my teammates three times. And I know how that feels and I want to have that feeling again. And then of course we also have the tough game on Tuesday against Real Madrid [in the Champions League] and that is my focus.

"It's not just me, it's [all] the players. If you ask, everyone's going to say 'I want to play' and the season that I arrived here I played a lot, I think.

"I know what I expect of course but I know we have very good players who can play every game as well and sometimes it's not just me, it's Riyad Mahrez, sometimes Raheem Sterling, and Jack Grealish arrives this season and sees how it is here. We have a lot of good strikers, wingers and forwards."

Since arriving at Man City in 2016, Jesus has gone on to score 93 goals and register 46 assists in 230 appearances for the club.
