Gabriel Jesus hit the ground running when he joined Manchester City. Still a teenager at the start of 2017, the striker made such an impression that for a while he was in the starting lineup and City legend Sergio Aguero was on the bench.
Five and a half years later, it is apparent that he has not become the long-term successor to Aguero, an impression reinforced by City's acquisition of Erling Haaland. And with the Norway international joining the club along with Argentine striker Julian Alvarez, Jesus is clearly concerned at being squeezed out of first-team action in the vital few months ahead of the World Cup.
