Brazilian superstar pens new 5 year contract in the Premier league
XtraTime Web Desk: Manchester City have been handed a boost on the eve of the season after Jesus penned a new five-year contract worth more than £100,000 a week. The Brazil international, who has 24 goals for the club, has committed his future to City until 2023, extending his current deal by two years. Negotiations were progressing well over Christmas but hit a snag earlier in the year. Talks were therefore put on ice until after the World.But both parties found a breakthrough over a 21-year-old who cost £27million from Palmeiras. Jesus was earning £70,000 a week but City felt the striker deserved a hike in terms. Jesus was back in training at the City Football Academy earlier this week as Pep Guardiola prepares their Premier League title defence.
