The Italian would like to see the Brazilian in his team

The official stance of Real Madrid is that they won't buy a big star at any cost this summer (as a replacement for Kylian Mbappe), but that does not mean that at least one striker will not come to the Santiago Bernabeu until September 1. Because the desire of Carlo Ancelotti and the management of the club is clear - Luka Jović and Mariano Diaz have spent all the credits and they need to find a new club, which will mean that it is necessary to provide support to Karim Benzema.

In that light, Spanish Marca is writing today about another name associated with the Royal Club. It is Gabriel Jesus (25) from Manchester City, a guy Pep Guardiola sees as not-necessary and has a green light to leave Etihad Stadium.

With all this in mind, the Madrid media outlet states that Gabriel Jesus could be a good choice for Los Blancos, above all financially acceptable - since he would still be an alternative to Benzema. what can be vital and push this deal to fruition is the word of coach Ancelotti.

Marca states that the Italian expert highly appreciates the Brazilian and reminds that Bayern tried to bring him on his initiative before he signed for City.

"Jesus has another year left on his contract, which also puts him at the top of the list of candidates. That means that the cost would not be too high, and it is known that the Brazilian does not belong to the group of vain players and could accept the fact that he comes to Benzema's aid.", the article reads..

What could make this operation more difficult is Real Madrid's clear and undisguised view that Jesus would only "patch the hole" and that he is there to pretty much wait for a long-term solution to be bought...

"The idea of ​​Real Madrid's bosses is to solve the current problem while they wait for what can happen with Haaland and his exit clause, which can be activated in the summer of 2024," Marca analyzes further.

Gabriel Jesus has a market value of 50 million euros, but the assumption is that Manchester City would let him go for far less money.

The Brazilian arrived from Palmeiras to Man City in 2017 for 32 million euros, scored 95 goals and made 46 assists.
