As Erling Haaland's prospective move to Manchester City edges closer, there's no doubt Gabriel Jesus will have a massive question to answer in the summer, with his contract set to expire in 15 months’ time.
The Blues’ search for a clinical number nine to replace Sergio Agüero seems to be drawing towards a conclusion that would please nearly all supporters. Haaland – who has 80 goals in 79 Borussia Dortmund appearances – is one of the hottest prospects in Europe and has attracted the attention of several suitors.
All signs point to the Norwegian becoming a City player next season, but if it happens that will lead to a few questions being asked of some of the current crop of stars – including Jesus. In fact, the Brazilian’s positional change this season has likely intensified City’s efforts to sign a striker, with Jesus beginning the campaign on the right-wing and enjoying varying degrees of success.
