Gabriel Jesus ended his eight match goal drought with a brace in Manchester City's 4-1 victory over Burnley on Tuesday and hopes this can spark him into emulating team-mate Sergio Aguero's scoring rate.
The 22-year-old Brazilian has got his chance to lead the City line, and will do so again in the Manchester derby on Saturday, because record goalscorer Aguero is injured.
Jesus -- bought for a reported ?27 million ($35 million) from Palmeiras in the January transfer window in 2017 -- said he is confident in his abilities as a goal scorer but just needs to follow 31-year-old Aguero's example.
Aguero, who is out with a thigh injury, has scored nine goals in 12 Premier League appearances this season and 173 in 251 league games overall for City at a rate of 0.69 per match.
"I know my qualities -- I know I can score," Jesus said after the match.
"I have to score when I play.
"Sergio scores every time. That is my ambition.
"I want to play and score every time."
