Gabriel Jesus is ready for his move to Manchester City - as long as he is given the No 33 shirt.

The Brazilian is set to finally complete his transfer to the Etihad after helping Palmeiras win their first league title for 22 years.

A switch to England for a 19-year-old from Brazil might be a difficult move, but Jesus revealed that he is taking a number of family members with him to help him settle - although he admits he would have liked to have had more move people move too.

The striker wants the No 33 shirt at City - the same number he had with Palmeiras

He told ESPN: 'If I could, I'd take all the ones who are with me since my growth. I'm much connected to my neighbourhood, Jardim Peri, every time I'm having a day off at home, I go there.

'If I could, I'd take the entire neighbourhood there, and would make a Jardim Peri in England. It's a place where I have peace.

'I'm going with my mum, my brother and taking two friends who are always with me, played football with me when I was small. I hope they help me a lot there.'

Jesus is widely regarded as one of the more talented young forwards in world football and clearly has the confidence too.

He wore the No 33 shirt for Palmeiras, and admitted that he had already asked City to be given the same jersey when he arrives in England.

Jesus added: 'I had told them it’s hard without the 33. I want this number because I used it since I was promoted at Palmeiras.'

City advanced to the last 16 of the Champions League - a competition Jesus will be eligible for - after finishing second in their group. They drew 1-1 against Celtic on Tuesday night.
