Man City striker Gabriel Jesus earns Brazil recall

Manchester City striker Gabriel Jesus has earned a recall to Tite's Brazil squad.

Gabriel has been recalled by Brazil for friendlies against Saudi Arabia and Argentina in October.

Coach Tite announced his squad on Friday, with three new faces: Bordeaux defender Pablo, Hannover midfielder Wallace, and Barcelona striker Malcom.

He also brought in under-21 goalkeeper Phelipe to give him international experience. The friendlies will be in Saudi Arabia on October 12 and 16.

Gabriel didn't score in Brazil's six-game campaign at the World Cup until the quarter final against Belgium.

He wasn't included in Tite's first squad after Brazil's campaign in Russia, for friendly victories against the United States and El Salvador.
