Gabriel Jesus returns to Manchester City training

Manchester City forward Gabriel Jesus reveals that he has returned to training after missing a number of matches with a thigh injury.

Manchester City forward Gabriel Jesus has returned to training ahead of the club's fixtures against Olympiacos and Liverpool.

The Brazilian has not made an appearance for City since scoring in the 3-1 victory over Wolverhampton Wanderers on September 21.

The 23-year-old's thigh injury has kept him out of nine matches on the club scene, as well as his nation's fixtures during the October international break.

However, Jesus took to Instagram over the weekend to show that he had made progress in his efforts to return to the pitch over the coming days.

While the attacker is unlikely to be considered for the Champions League meeting with Olympiacos, avoiding any fitness issues throughout this week could put him in contention for the showdown with Liverpool on Sunday.
