Manchester City attacker Gabriel Jesus emerges as a summer transfer target for Juventus, according to a report.

Juventus are reportedly preparing a summer bid for Manchester City attacker Gabriel Jesus.

The Brazil international has scored six times and registered nine assists in 28 appearances for the Citizens during the 2021-22 campaign, with just two of those goals coming in the Premier League.

Jesus would be pushed further down the pecking order at the Etihad Stadium this summer if Borussia Dortmund's Erling Braut Haaland arrives, with the English champions believed to be at the head of the queue for the Norway international.

A recent report claimed that Man City are keen to open talks with the 24-year-old over a new contract at the club.

However, according to the Daily Star, Pep Guardiola's side could be tempted into selling the South American this summer amid interest from Juventus.

The report claims that the Old Lady are confident that an offer in the region of £65m would be enough to convince Man City to let him leave in the upcoming market.

Jesus is allegedly desperate to secure regular action in the build-up to the 2022 World Cup but knows that he will struggle to break into his current side's starting XI on a consistent basis.

The forward, who has entered the final 18 months of his contract at the Etihad Stadium, has scored 88 goals and registered 43 assists in 223 outings for Man City since arriving from Palmeiras in 2017.
