Gabriel Jesus in line to start for Barcelona against Galatasaray
goal.com —
Barcelona forward Gabriel Jesus is now a candidate to start against Galatasaray in Tuesday's Champions League match, following his impressive first start for the club in place of the injured Raphinha. Coach Hansi Flick broke convention by announcing Jesus would start in the last La Liga game, and the Brazilian delivered a precise finish while showing strong all-round harmony with his teammates. His experience from the Premier League and his stated preference for creating chaos on the pitch have made him a valuable asset. Jesus lasted 81 minutes against Getafe, and his personality and defensive contributions have impressed the club. The key question now is whether he retains his starting spot for the Galatasaray clash.
