Manchester City forward Gabriel Jesus seemingly denies suggestions that he was offered to Bayern Munich over the summer.

Manchester City forward Gabriel Jesus has seemingly denied suggestions that he was offered to Bayern Munich during the summer transfer window.

Bayern were strongly linked with a move for Leroy Sane ahead of the 2019-20 campaign before being forced to abandon their pursuit when the Germany international picked up a serious knee injury.

Earlier this month, it was reported that the Bundesliga champions were offered the opportunity to sign Jesus from the Premier League champions but turned down the deal.

However, the Brazil international quelled the suggestions by writing the word "lie" on his official Instagram account next to a story claiming that Bayern rejected a swoop.

Jesus has scored five times and contributed two assists in 12 appearances for Pep Guardiola's side during the 2019-20 campaign.

The 22-year-old, who has either scored or provided an assist in three of City's last four Premier League matches, has a contract at the Etihad Stadium until the summer of 2023.
