"I can say that it was the best decision I've made in my life to come to Manchester City because whilst I'm here I'm improving as a professional and as a person," Jesus told City's website https://www.mancity.com/news/first-team/first-team-news/2018/august/gabriel-jesus-man-city-contract-extension.
"Pep had an important role in my signing, but also the club. City is a huge club and it is getting bigger and bigger so I just want to say thanks for everything."
Jesus, who represented Brazil at this year's World Cup, returned to training with City earlier this week ahead of their Community Shield clash against FA Cup winners Chelsea on Sunday.
