The now-25-year-old newcomer to Arsenal was seen as a youngster muralizing the streets of his Sao Paulo neighborhood as Brazil prepared to host the 2014 World Cup.

One year later, ambitious Jesus had already established himself at Palmeiras as one of the most promising players in his nation.

By the end of 2016, the striker had already signed a record-breaking contract with Manchester City, played for his nation, and scored twice in his debut match. All of this by the age of 19.

Jesus was referred to as the “best in the world” by Pep Guardiola as a result of his meteoric rise and subsequent performances for City.

Dreams can come true

Jesus was photographed holding a paintbrush while painting the streets of Sao Paulo when he was barely 17 years old and playing for the Palmeiras youth club. It was part of a local attempt to get into the World Cup atmosphere that the nation was hosting in 2014.When Jesus was 17 he was snapped painting the streets of Sao PauloJesus then embraced his Jardim Peri neighborhood with enthusiasm and brought his own color to a place noted for its terrible housing circumstances. Jesus honored his hometown by getting a tattoo depicting a little child looking back at his previous neighborhood while holding a football under his arm.Là một phần của sáng kiến ​​World Cup, thanh thiếu niên địa phương đã trang trí quê hương của họ bằng những tác phẩm sơn lạ mắtHe honed his football abilities there on dirt fields by playing in a style that the locals refer to as “Varzea.”At the Pequeninos do Meio Ambiente football team in the neighboring city of Tremembe, his commitment to his art from the age of eight to fourteen was evident. He couldn’t afford the bus price, so every Saturday he would walk an hour and a half to training while wearing flip-flops and carrying a pair of worn-out football boots. He may have developed into the hardworking and diligent player he is today as a result of the eight-mile round trip.Chúa Giêsu đã cùng những người bạn ở Jardim Peri vẽ tranh khu phốJesus was raised by his mother Vera, who has since kept a close check on him as a star. His mother, who also saw Jesus’ skill with a ball, took on three jobs to raise her four children when his father passed away not long after he was born.Jesus bắt được lỗi bóng đá ở Pequeninos do Meio AmbienteJesus has never lost sight of her struggle even today.

Early years

Jesus agreed to a youth contract with Palmeiras in 2013. He did well in school, though. After passing his exams with distinction at Guilherme de Almeida State College, his former headteacher claimed he could have become a scientist.Chúa Giêsu hành động cho Palmeiras năm 2016But playing football was just too alluring. In the 2014 u17 state championship, he led Palmeiras in scoring with 37 goals in 22 games. His talents were already being noticed by Europe’s premier clubs at the time, so a career in academia would have to wait.Năm 2016, Jesus giúp Palmeiras giành danh hiệu đầu tiên sau 22 nămJesus was thrown into the Palmeiras first squad in 2015 and made 37 appearances across all competitions, mostly coming off the bench. He also scored seven goals.Ở tuổi 19, Jesus đã có cho mình cú bom tấn chuyển tới Man CityIt would get much better the next year. He would make 46 appearances while contributing 21 goals. He would lead Palmeiras to their first league championship in 22 years, which is more significant. It became evident that he was already destined to perform on a larger platform at the age of 19.

Welcome to the Premier League

Jesus was signed by Manchester City in 2016 for a rumored sum of £30 million, beating out a number of other clubs.Trong 100 trận đầu tiên cho Man City, Jesus ghi 45 bàn“I want to win titles, and Manchester City is a club that is used to winning,” he declared upon his arrival. The fact that City is a team that consistently challenges for the championship in the tournaments it enters was crucial, as was Pep Guardiola’s leadership of the team. It was a foretelling of what would occur next. He would make his club debut in January 2017 and have an immediate impact, scoring seven goals in his first 11 appearances.Trong sự nghiệp ở Man City, Jesus đã 4 lần nâng cúp Premier LeagueHe settled in despite a minor issue with a broken metatarsal in only his fourth game. He received his first Premier League winners’ medal the next year, which led to back-to-back championships the following year. In his first 100 games for the club, Jesus would score 45 goals while competing with Sergio Aguero for the center-forward position. However, not everything at the 2018 World Cup went as expected.

Failure with Brazil

Brazil was expected to do well before that exhibition in Russia.Cánh tay có hình xăm của Chúa Giêsu là lời nhắc nhở về quê hương của NgàiThe pressure was on Jesus after his captain Dani Alves compared him to Ronaldo, a World Cup icon. He was left floundering as he led his country’s line, however, due to the strain on his young shoulders. Brazil’s No. 9 is expected to score goals in such a situation. Jesus failed miserably in that aspect, earning a zero. In the end, Belgium would eliminate them from the competition in the quarterfinals.Đối với Brazil, Jesus bị chỉ trích sau thất bại ở World Cup 2018In the end, Jesus was damning of his own performance and boldly said it troubled him.”That elimination of ours was a blow for all of us, especially for me,” he subsequently remarked.”I was a significant player who went to the World Cup, but I didn’t score. You are impacted.”That left me with a scar. Gabriel, the World Cup player who didn’t score, will always be remembered. Perhaps his recent hangover, together with questions about whether he is a natural goal scorer and being used as a wide forward rather than a center forward, have limited his abilities.

An admirer of Pep

Despite skepticism over his ability to score goals, Man City boss Pep Guardiola stood by his player.HLV Man City Pep Guardiola gọi Jesus là 'người giỏi nhất thế giới'Jesus proved his value to his manager last season, his first without being overshadowed by Aguero, with a magnificent four-goal barrage against Watford. The idea of moving to Arsenal was already being discussed at the time. Guardiola discussed his significance to the team during a press conference after the game.Trong khu phố cũ của anh, một bức tranh tường về Chúa Giêsu được vẽ trên tường“I’d want to let you know that Gabriel is one of our players. He is a player for Manchester City, but I’m not sure what will happen,” the Spaniard remarked. But Gabriel doesn’t need to put on a performance like this one in which he scores four goals to be fully aware of his potential. He missed two clear man-to-man opportunities against Liverpool in the FA Cup, but he was always present. Gabriel has this tremendous talent because he is constantly considering what is best for the team.”1,000,000,000 moves, he doesn’t catch the ball, but he keeps making 1,000,000,000 motions for the other ones. And because he is always there, I am the happiest man in the world when he has nights like this.Người đàn ông của gia đình Jesus giờ đã là cha của con gái HelenaHe will have a good career because of the incredible positivity in his mind and the way he thinks for the team. If he doesn’t play, he will be in training the next day as if it were his last. Additionally, Guardiola would say, “Gabriel is one of the best, and we did everything this season with him.”Jesus will now bring that contagious attitude to Arsenal, where he is reunited with former City assistant Mikel Arteta, where he is now a father to daughter Helena with Wag Raiane. Locals have created a mural of his likeness to honor their favorite son and to honor his accomplishments thus far. But now all that needs to be done is to paint it red.
