Former Manchester City ace Andy Morrison believes Gabriel Jesus can be one of the best in the world. The Brazil international has played second fiddle to Sergio Aguero since joining the club two years ago but he has a good chance of securing regular gametime in the coming weeks with Sergio Aguero out with a thigh concern.

Arsenal defender David Luiz has said that the youngsters at the club have earned their opportunities to impress on the basis of their hard work this season. Joe Willock, Reiss Nelson and Bukayo Saka are some of the academy players, who have earned regular gametime this term and the latter has started the last two Premier League matches for the club.
Brazil legend Rivaldo has backed Gabriel Jesus to become a regular starter with Manchester City following a successful Copa America campaign. The striker managed to impress during the recent continental tournament with two goals and two assists and that helped Brazil win the Copa America crown after a 12-year wait.
Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has said that Neymar remains an extraordinary player but he cannot judge whether the Brazilian would be a success on his potential return to the Camp Nou. The 27-year-old is currently in the ranks of Paris Saint-Germain but he has been touted to make the comeback with the Blaugrana during the ongoing transfer window.
Speaking to Ara, Guardiola highlighted that the Brazilian remains a potent force when it comes to the attacking facet of the game but cannot predict whether he can once more be successful with the Blaugrana, he said: “Neymar is an extraordinary player. But I don't know. It's like if I go back to Barcelona, I am not the same person, and I don't know if Neymar would be the same. Well, he is great, nobody doubts it.”
Paris Saint-Germain manager Thomas Tuchel has indicated that he is hopeful of continuing at the helm next season despite the club’s average campaign. The Capital outfit had been expected to celebrate a domestic double after celebrating the league title earlier in the month, but the same did not happen following their shock penalty shoot-out defeat to Rennes in the Coupe de France final.
Speaking after the game, Tuchel admitted that he would prefer to continue working with the Parisian outfit next season despite the disappointing end to the campaign. He added that he cannot explain the outcome of the game, considering his players were cruising during the early phase of the Cup final.
Dani Alves says that Neymar might be one of his closest buddies on the Football circuit, but his behavior during the presentation ceremony at the conclusion of the domestic cup final in France was totally uncalled for and he is not going to even try to defend it.
Alves and Neymar not only play alongside each other in club Football, but they are compatriots as well and represent the same country at the international level and hence share a very close relationship.
Brazil international Dani Alves has indicated that he would be willing to extend his contract with Paris Saint-Germain beyond the current campaign. The 35-year-old has been with the French outfit for the past 20 months where he has managed to command a regular starting role despite the competition from Thomas Meunier.
Speaking to reporters, Alves said that he has no plans of hanging up his boots in the near future but his stay with Les Parisiens depends on the board’s decision, he said: "It doesn't depend on me, but if it were down to me then of course. People are marked down for their age — once you get past 30, people look at you a bit funny. When you get to 35 the questions are all 'when are you going to stop?' Calm down! I decide when I am going to stop. It's the old story, do you want a normal car, or something top of the range? That is how I am — the older I am, the more expensive I am!"
Dani Alves has an enigmatic personality which has resulted in loads of titles anywhere he goes and still makes him a relevant player for PSG despite turning 35 last year. There was a funny meme which was circulating on Twitter in which it was revealed that Alves had played in all positions for the Paris side.
The former Barcelona ace has been one of the most important players during this period of injuries at the club which has seen the squad laid bare ahead of the clash with United.
The run of injuries has seen Veratti, Neymar, Cavani and Thomas Meunier sidelined for spells. This has resulted in coach Thomas Tuchel tinkering with the formation as the club has departed from his favoured 4-3-3 formation. Alves has played as a right back, left back, centre midfielder and attacker during this period.
Paris Saint-Germain teenager Timothy Weah has revealed that he had spoken with the likes of Thomas Meunier and Dani Alves prior to securing his temporary move to Celtic. The United States footballer has been regarded as one of the best upcoming prospects in the French Ligue 1 and he has taken the opportunity to earn valuable experience with the Hoops after barring featuring for Les Parisiens during the first half of the season.
Speaking to reporters, Weah highlighted that he did not speak with Neymar regarding the potential move but said that the likes of Alves and Meunier had issued him the go-ahead to join the Scottish champions, he told: “I didn’t go to him [Neymar] and speak to him one-on-one about coming to Celtic but I kinda spoke to other team-mates like Thomas Meunier and Dani Alves. They said it’s good to go out and get experience and they felt Celtic was the best club because you’re getting that. It’s all in the package — great team, great supporters, great stadium, great coaching staff, so it’s a great place to come and learn.”
Paris Saint Germain defender Dani Alves said that he wants to play in the Premier League before he retires. He said that he has played in the best leagues in the world and he believes that he will have to play at least once in the Premier League.
He said that the intensity of games as well as the passion of the fans is different in England and he wants to experience that at least once in his career.
