Manchester City are seemingly making life difficult for Arsenal during negotiations for Gabriel Jesus.

The Brazilian forward is a key target for the Gunners, who are seeking at least two strikers in the summer transfer window.

ESPN reports City are demanding a mammoth £55 million to sell Jesus, who has been in and out of the starting lineup this season.

Jesus has a year left on his contract, and City have secured the signature of Erling Haaland for next season and beyond.

The Brazilian wants to make the move to Arsenal, but City's price tag may put off the Gunners from sealing the deal.

While they value Jesus, with the club set to finish in the Europa League places, £55 million would eat up a large chunk of their transfer budget.
