He made his debut for the Citizens in January, with a good performance against Tottenham, but an injury stopped him in his tracks. After returning in April against Manchester United, the former Palmeiras man has managed three goals and two assists in the last four fixtures of the Premier League.
'He is 19 years old and generally young players who arrive mid-season have the need to adapt, especially to their teammates' style. But since his debut in the Premier League when he jumped on against Tottenham he showed he had the level. An he has shown it on several occasions', the City manager explained.
The Brazilian is a true goalscorer and he is shaping up to be Manchester City's starting centre-forward next season for Pep Guardiola.
'His impact is enormous and the possiblities of his growth are very high. His main desire is to help the team. When he loses the ball, he runs back to defend, I love it. He wants to be a great player. He listens to advice and works hard', the Catalan manager concluded.
