5 Brazilian players who have the potential to become superstars

#1 Gabriel Jesus (Manchester City)

His potential and current ability is already impressive

Age: 21

Position: Striker

Brazil’s next great number nine? Quite possibly. Gabriel Jesus, who ignored heavy interest from Spain's top sides to sign for Manchester City two years ago, has proven himself to be a star under Pep Guardiola - proving to be Sergio Agüero’s worthy successor - and will look to continue improving after a difficult World Cup campaign in Russia this summer.

A talented and versatile forward, Jesus is capable of playing in several attacking positions: he has been deployed as a centre forward, as an out-and-out striker, as a false 9, as an inside forward, as a winger or as an attacking midfielder and is renowned for his pace, technical skills, dribbling ability, creativity, finishing, movement, and work ethic.

Former Brazilian forward Ronaldo has praised Jesus and touted him for future success with the Brazilian national team.
