5 under-19 strikers who will one day rule European football

Ajax's latest superstar striker: Kasper Dolberg

#2 Gabriel Jesus

The usurper: Gabriel Jesus

19-year-old Gabriel Jesus is already being touted as the young striker who's capable of usurping Sergio Aguero's throne at Manchester City. And boy has he made the right first impression.

With three goals and two assists in only his first four appearances for Manchester City, Jesus looks like the kind of striker truly capable of living up to the hype train. Pep Guardiola thinks he's worth his weight in gold and that's not something we hear very often.

Jesus is quick, lethal anywhere in the box and has the desire to chase any loose ball for the benefit of his team. He's only 19 and has the right ingredients to become hugely successful in Europe. With the kind of project that seems to be developing at the Etihad, he's in the right club under the right manager with the right kind of talent around him to achieve said milestone.
