Manchester City’s new Brazilian starlet, Gabriel Jesus has jetted into the city for a weekend break ahead of his permanent move to the club in January.
The £27m man was signed during the summer but loaned back to his previous club, Palmeiras, for the rest of their domestic season.
At just 19 years-old Jesus is touted as one of global footballs’s next big sᴜperstars.
But when he finally makes his move to the city in the new year, the slippery midfielder will need a place to stay.
City Centre
St Anne’s Square, £6,500 p/m
New to Manchester, the skillful Brazilian might want to throw himself right into the mix, and bag himself a swanky city centre pad.
This two bedroom apartment in St Anne’s Square has a 24 hr concierge to meet his every need as well as underfloor heating throughout, should the Manchester Winter just get that little too much.
And with his increased wealth after his big money move, Gabriel will be pleased to have some of the city’s high end fashion brands just a stone’s throw from this plush pad.
Beetham Tower, £4,495 p/m
Another possible city location could be the iconic Beetham Tower, with its panoramic views across the whole of Manchester, that’s one way of getting to know his new surroundings.
Boasting three large bedrooms, which also benefit from stunning views, along with an astroturf ‘garden’, and a sᴜper modern, open plan kitchen, this could be every young footballer’s ideal apartment.
Also being located at the top of Deansgate, he won’t be short of places to go and relax, with the footballers’ destination of choice, Spinningfields, right on his doorstep.
He’s gonna have to be quick with this one though, as United boss, Jose Mourinho is said to be keen after viewing it twice.
CitySuites, £3,481 p/m
Some sɑy it’s not a good idea to socialise with your boss outside of work, well how about living next door to them, after Pep Guardiola is believed to have snapped up a flat in the chic apartment block.
CitySuites also benefits from a 24 hr concierge and underground parking, perfect for avoiding the hoards of paparazzi waiting outside.
Like the Beetham Tower, located just off Deansgate, the two bed apartment is right in the heart of the city, with dozens of fɑncy restaurants and bars close by.
Outside the City
East Downs Road, Bowdon £3,500,000
A bit pricey, but if the city doesn’t really do it for the young striker, then he could always look further afield and join his team-mates out in the sticks.
This chic, modern, four bedroom home in Bowdon could be perfect, with his open plan design.
Brazilians are known for throwing a party or two, well, should the sun come out, he won’t be struggling for room, with a massive garden and patio area to entertain.
The property also boasts underground leisure suite, with a gym, sauna and steam room, perfect for unwinding and probably much healthier than partying in the city centre’s nightclubs.
Hilltop, Hale, POA
Now this could be controversial but Phil Neville is believed to be looking for a buyer for his plush Hale mansion, and is currently renting it out.
THIS might not go down too well with the City faithful, but it definitely ticks every box for a footballer’s swanky home.
Boasting six bedrooms the high end mansion also has a state of the art leisure complex, with a swimming pool, sauna, steam room and gym, it will be ideal for keeping the young man in shape during the Summer.
There is also a mini football pitch in the basement, means that he can practise his samba skills before stepping out at the Etihad to make his debut.
We’re not sure if he’d keep the pool table though.
