Gabriel Jesus Takes No9  Shirt at Man City

Gabriel Jesus has changed his shirt number at Manchester City, with the Brazil international striker to wear No.9 from the 2019-20 campaign.

The South American arrived at the Etihad Stadium in the winter transfer window of 2017.

He took No.33 at that stage, with none of the regular striking shirts available.

Sergio Aguero is very much the No.10 at City, with the Argentine frontman still a prolific presence for the Blues.

When Jesus was signed, Nolito had number nine but he has since moved on, freeing Jesus to step into his shoes.

The City star has told the club’s official website: “It will be an honour to wear the City number nine shirt and I’ll do so with great pride.”
