Manchester City striker Jesus scored his eighth international goal in last week’s 3-1 win over Japan and appears set to play a key role at Russia 2018.

«I wasn’t joking when I called him the new Ronaldo. They have a similar drive,» Alves said at Brazil’s pre-match press conference.

«He’s already great and will get even better.

«For all that he’s done, all that he’s achieved, there’s no pressure. He’s doing what he loves.»
