Jeremy Doku reveals the unusual reason why he had added motivation to impress during the Manchester derby

Jeremy Doku was baptised in the hours after turning in his best performance in a Manchester City shirt during Sunday’s rousing derby win.

The Belgium international has been cast as a frustrating winger over his two years at the Etihad Stadium but produced two assists for Phil Foden and then Erling Haaland against Manchester United.
Doku was afforded a freer role in behind Haaland and flourished – putting the improved display down to his faith.

‘If I can be honest, it was already a victory for me,’ Doku said. ‘Why? Because I knew that after the game I’m going to baptise myself, I’m going to be baptised.

Maybe that’s why I felt like I was pushed today. That’s why I’m very happy with the performance as well.

‘I was already excited before the game because I knew that it was a victory day.’

Doku recently launched a YouTube channel and discussed his faith during a documentary charting his summer and the Club World Cup.
