Manchester City forward Gabriel Jesus is confident that manager Pep Guardiola will be able to convince Dani Alves to join City.

The 34-year-old sealed his exit from Juventus on Tuesday after prematurely ending his contract with the Italian giants.

The former Barcelona star is currently a subject of a tussle between City and Chelsea; however, reports have suggested that a move to City is almost done and it could be completed this week.

Jesus said: "It still hasn't become concrete. But when it does, I'll be quite happy.

"I will be quite happy not only for the quality, but for the energy he has.

"I really like the energy he has, that motivates the group, motivates the person to always want to win in life and playing.

"I'm worried he's not sure yet.

"Come on, shall we, Dani? If it's between Chelsea and City, I hope Guardiola makes that difference."
