Manchester City fans have taken to Twitter to respond to a baffling transfer report from The Sun, which suggests that Gabriel Jesus may need to be sold to Atletico Madrid in order to land defensive midfielder Rodri.

The report states that the Spanish midfielder has a £65m release clause in his contract with Atletico, which the Citizens can easily meet and surely wouldn't need to sell Jesus to raise funds for.

Diego Simeone's side are keen to sign Jesus and armed with funds from the sale of Lucas Hernandez and the departing Antoine Griezmann, but that is irrelevant in City's pursuit of Rodri - once a release clause is met, the club who own the player is out of the equation and talks will be held with the buying club and the player's representatives.

Jesus has scored 21 goals and recorded six assists this year despite playing second fiddle to Sergio Aguero, which is very impressive.

City won't want to lose him, and the fans definitely don't want to lose the Brazilian international, so they have taken to Twitter to react to the odd transfer report...
