#4 Gabriel Jesus (Manchester City | Age: 24)

Manchester City’s Gabriel Jesus could be another forward the Blaugrana should look into. It does not have to be in this transfer window or even this season, however, the Brazilian could be inclined to leave Pep Guardiola’s side if he is not given an important role at the club next season. The former Palmeiras player started only 22 games in the Premier League last season although Aguero was injured or on the bench for most of the season. Jesus is already 24 years old and is entering the prime of his career; however, if Pep continues to choose others in front of him, he will leave the club for more playtime.

Currently, the Citizens are trying to secure Harry Kane as their replacement for Aguero and if that happens, it will leave little chance for Jesus to play in the starting eleven. Barcelona could wait for one transfer window and if City do sign Kane, then Jesus will more than likely be willing to join another club. The Catalans could steal the talented youngster then, and after being under Pep since 2017, Jesus will be the perfect fit for Barcelona.
