What have Man City's players said about Jesus?

In response to Stones, Jesus wrote: "Johnny Johnny. Thanks for everything bro! I will miss you my guy! I wish you all the best!"

What other business have Man City conducted this summer?

The departure of Jesus was a blow tempered almost immediately by the news that Pep Guardiola had sealed his second major target of the summer in the shape of Leeds United's Kalvin Phillips.

The arrival of the England midfielder comes on the heels of the capture of Borussia Dortmund forward Erling Haaland and goalkeeper Stefan Ortega.

Zack Steffen looks poised for a potential exit in the coming weeks too, while there may be a move for Raheem Sterling, who is on Chelsea's radar, among others.
