Jesus has become an important piece of Pep Guardiola's schemes at Man City

Gabriel Jesus could become the next football phenomenon. At 20, the Brazilian has become a crucial part of Pep Guardiola's plans at Man City. 

A few hours before the clash between Brazil and England at Wembley, Dani Alves compared Gabriel Jesus with Ronaldo, the Brazilian legend. 

"I'm not joking when I call him the new Ronaldo," said Alves. "I keep thinking the same thing, they work in the same way. He will be one of the great players. He's already one of the best in the world.

"He doesn't have pressure for what he's done and achieved already. He does what he loves.: 

As well as at Man City, Jesus is also becoming a star for Tite's Brazil side.
