It’s fair to say Gabriel Jesus has had quite the impact at Manchester City.
The 19-year-old has three goals and an assist from his first three Premier League games, and it’s been enough for him to usurp Sergio Aguero in the starting line-up.
Pep Guardiola dropped Aguero to the bench against Swansea as the young Brazilian stole the show yet again, and unsurprisingly, it has brought about fresh speculation over the Argentinian’s future at the Etihad.
The Mirror claim that while the forward – who is rated at around £75million – is a target of Real Madrid, Chelsea could now enter the race for him in the summer.
There’s a genuine possibility that the Blues will be on the hunt for a replacement for Diego Costa, who is wanted by Chinese Super League clubs.
Aguero is 28, the same age as Costa. That means Antonio Conte may want to think carefully before mounting a huge bid for the City star, who is tied to Manchester until 2020.
