A Barcelona star might be given his first start for the club against Getafe in their upcoming La Liga match on October 10th. This is according to a report from Diario Sport, which suggests that German manager Hansi Flick is considering starting Gabriel Jesus for the first time since his summer transfer from Arsenal.
Brazilian forward Jesus, who has made a strong impact in his limited appearances for Barcelona, scored two goals in just 41 minutes during a recent game. His goal-scoring form has been particularly impressive, and his inclusion in the starting line-up could be a significant boost for the team's attacking options.
With Brazilian international Raphinha having been forced out of international duty due to a muscular issue, Jesus is seen as the most likely candidate to replace him. Ahead of Raphinha, Gabriel Jesus is the favored option to step into the starting lineup, followed by young prospect Hamza Abdelkarim.
