Manchester City have confirmed that Gabriel Jesus will wear the number nine squad number heading into the 2019/20 campaign.

The Brazilian previously wore number 33 but the reigning Premier League champions have opted to award the 22-year-old with a more recognised squad number for a leading striker.

The previous five players to have worn the number nine for the Citizens were Nolito, Alvaro Negredo, Emmanuel Adebayor, Valeri Bojinov and Emile Mpenza, who all found limited success at the club.

However, Jesus has already proven his worth in the Manchester City ranks, scoring 45 goals in 100 appearances for Pep Guardiola’s side, winning various honours including two Premier League titles, the FA Cup, EFL Cup and FA Community Shield.

I wish him the best

And R.Lukaku will open mouth and say he's wearing No.9 too. smh

MAD o

Useless player...can’t score to save his life

The guy is a shitty player, I just don't like his style of play especially in Brazil national team.
The coaches most times use him out of likeness not that he's better than those playing same position.

Name the top 5 strikers in England presently...

Na wa oo.. Adebayor even wear the 9 .

Is he retired or still plying his trade somewhere in China or Qatar

Good but still second choice after aguero

He always press high up with energy but he is an average player. He is too selfish (he will sha want to get to the score sheet) thats why I dont like him.

Yes he is good, that is why iheanacho was sold to lestercity

Madness

See your mouth like foolish comments, do you know my football club(favourite club), Gabriel won't make first team if he's in my club?

JESUS died at 33, he layed down his jersey 33 for number 9.Good omen.
