In a video circulating on social media, the Brazilian international can be seen being provoked by a spectator shouting: "Judas, what's the score?" The former City player approached the fan and responded emphatically, recalling his successful past at the club: "I won 11 titles here!"

The incident occurred during a high-stakes match where Pep Guardiola's side secured a crucial victory in the Premier League title race. This result put Manchester City just three points off the top of the table, with a game in hand that could see them claim the lead.

Gabriel Jesus arrived at the Etihad in January 2017 from Palmeiras and quickly became a key figure in Guardiola's squads. Over five years, the forward made 236 appearances and scored 95 goals, contributing to four Premier League titles, three League Cups, and one FA Cup.

One of the most memorable moments of his time at City was his injury-time goal against Southampton in 2018, which secured the historic 100-point season, known as the "Centurions." However, with the arrival of Erling Haaland in 2022, Jesus saw his playing time diminish. Seeking a new challenge and a primary role, he transferred to Arsenal for 52 million euros in July 2022, where he reunited with Mikel Arteta, a former assistant to Guardiola.
