British media have reported City is favourite to sign Borussia Dortmund's Erling Haaland, which would further limit playing time for Jesus, whose contract expires in June 2023.

"Now is the best moment of the season. I want to enjoy, to keep focused on my team, with my team mates, to fight for the Premier League."

Jesus scored four goals in City's 5-1 thrashing of Watford at the weekend and he said his focus was helping his side clinch the Premier League title.
