Manchester City striker Gabriel Jesus became the first player since September 2020 to score four goals in a Premier League match on Saturday afternoon.

City’s Brazilian forward got four of the Sky Blues’ goals during their 5-1 win over Watford at the Etihad Stadium as Pep Guardiola’s side took a step nearer to winning their fourth title in the space of five years, with Rodri getting the other goal that was set up by Jesus.

The performance came shortly after reports from The Athletic suggested that Arsenal were lining up a bid to sign Jesus from City in a bid to bolster up their forward line for the 2022/23 season, with the 25-year-old starting just 17 times in England’s top-flight this term.

After a man of the match display against the Hornets, Jesus was asked about recent links with a potential move to the Emirates Stadium, with the City forward saying it was not the time to discuss it after such an enjoyable performance from home.

“Not time to think about this,” said Jesus. “You expect me to say this and it’s true. Not time to think about this, now is the best moment of the season.

“I want to enjoy it, keep focussed on my teammates to fight for the Premier League. I’ve won with my teammates three times already so I know how it feels and I want to again. We have a tough game on Tuesday against Real Madrid, a tough opponent. That’s my focus.”
