أصبح الهداف البرازيلي إيجور جيسوس عنواناً رئيسياً واسماً متداولاً على الأصعدة كافة عقب توهجه في أول مواجهتين لفريقه (بوتافوجو البرازيلي) أمام سياتيل وباريس سان جيرمان توجهما بالحصول على جائزة أفضل لاعب في المباراتين، والأهم من ذلك تسجيله هدف الفوز التاريخي لفريقه أمام بطل دوري أبطال أوروبا باريس سان جيرمان.
وكان إيجور جيسوس قد بدأ مشواره الكروي ضمن ناشئي كورتيبا البرازيلي قبل أن تحدث نقطة التحول الكبيرة في مسيرته عندما انتقل إلى شباب الأهلي الإماراتي في موسم 2020 في صفقة كلفت خزينة الفريق الإماراتي مليوني يورو، وتألق بشكل لافت مع الفريق في موسمه الأول، وارتفعت قيمته السوقية إلى 5 ملايين يورو، بينما أسهم تكرار إصاباته مع «فرسان دبي» في تراجع مردوده وغيابه لفترات طويلة عن المشاركة في المباريات، وانخفاض قيمته السوقية إلى 1.5 مليون يورو في 2022، وفقاً لموقع «ترانسفير ماركت» المختص بسوق انتقالات اللاعبين.
وتعرض إيغور إلى 3 إصابات قوية مع شباب الأهلي خلال 3 مواسم، حيث تعرض للإصابة الأولى في الركبة بقطع في الرباط الصليبي في أكتوبر 2021، وغاب عن الملاعب لأكثر من عام، وعقب عودته في بداية موسم 2022-2023 خاض أول 6 مباريات في الموسم وأصيب مجدداً في الركبة، وخضع اللاعب بعدها إلى جراحة عاجلة، ثم لبرنامج علاجي وتأهيلي، في المقابل تعرض لإصابة أخرى، وغاب عن الفريق لفترة وصلت إلى 3 أشهر.
في المقابل، توهج إيجور جيسوس في الأشهر الستة الأخيرة من عقده مع «فرسان دبي»، وتألق بشكل لافت ليجذب أنظار بوتافوجو البرازيلي الذي اتفق معه في يناير 2024 على انتقاله إلى صفوفه في فترة الانتقالات الصيفية.
وشارك إيجور مع شباب الأهلي في 87 مباراة، وأحرز 43 هدفاً، ولعب 20 تمريرة حاسمة، وأحرز مع «فرسان دبي» 4 ألقاب هي الدوري الإماراتي للمحترفين، وكأس السوبر، إلى جانب كأس المحترفين مرتين.
وكان إيجور جيسوس على بُعد أشهر قليلة من الوصول إلى أحقيته في تمثيل منتخب الإمارات بعد قضاء الفترة القانونية اللازمة لذلك، إلا أنه وبعد تألقه في الأشهر الأخيرة مع شباب الأهلي ووصول عرض بوتافوجو قرر اللاعب قبول العرض والتخلي عن فكرة تمثيل منتخب الإمارات، ليبدع مع فريقه الجديد، إذ خاض 19 مباراة، وأحرز 7 أهداف، ولعب تمريرة حاسمة، إذ يتصدر بوتافوجو لائحة ترتيب الدوري البرازيلي، كما تأهل إلى نصف نهائي كأس ليبرتادوريس، وارتفعت قيمته السوقية إلى 6 ملايين يورو كأعلى قيمة سوقية وصل إليها، ليتم اختياره ضمن قائمة منتخب البرازيل للمرة الأولى في مسيرته، حيث أعلن نفسه ودخل قلوب الجمهور البرازيلي بتألقه في ظهوره الأول بإحرازه هدفاً في مباراته الدولية الأولى.

The Brazilian striker Igor Jesus has become a headline and a widely discussed name on all fronts following his brilliance in his team's (Botafogo) first two matches against Seattle and Paris Saint-Germain, where he was awarded the Best Player in both matches. Most importantly, he scored the historic winning goal for his team against the UEFA Champions League champion Paris Saint-Germain.
Igor Jesus began his football journey in the youth ranks of Coritiba before a significant turning point in his career occurred when he transferred to Al Ahli in the UAE in the 2020 season for a fee of two million euros. He shone remarkably with the team in his first season, and his market value rose to five million euros. However, recurring injuries with "Dubai's Knights" affected his performance, causing him to miss long periods of matches, and his market value dropped to 1.5 million euros in 2022, according to the player transfer market website "Transfermarkt."
Igor suffered three serious injuries with Al Ahli over three seasons, with his first injury being a knee ligament tear in October 2021, which kept him off the field for more than a year. After returning at the start of the 2022-2023 season, he played the first six matches of the season but injured his knee again, leading to an urgent surgery followed by a treatment and rehabilitation program. Meanwhile, he suffered another injury, causing him to miss three months with the team.
On the other hand, Igor Jesus shone in the last six months of his contract with "Dubai's Knights," impressing enough to catch the attention of Botafogo, which agreed with him in January 2024 for his transfer during the summer transfer window.
Igor participated in 87 matches with Al Ahli, scoring 43 goals and providing 20 assists. He won four titles with "Dubai's Knights," including the UAE Pro League, the Super Cup, and the Professional Cup twice.
Igor Jesus was just a few months away from being eligible to represent the UAE national team after completing the necessary legal period. However, after his impressive performance in recent months with Al Ahli and receiving an offer from Botafogo, he decided to accept the offer and abandon the idea of representing the UAE national team. He has excelled with his new team, playing 19 matches, scoring seven goals, and providing one assist. Botafogo currently leads the Brazilian league standings and has qualified for the semifinals of the Copa Libertadores. His market value has risen to six million euros, the highest value he has reached, and he was selected for the Brazil national team for the first time in his career, where he announced himself and won the hearts of the Brazilian audience with his stellar performance in his international debut by scoring a goal.
